    Hi guys

    I have a 32inch Hanspree tv, I never really used the USB before as i always connected my laptop but i cant do that anymore where its mounted so i am now using USB's. Every time i play a video the picture is stuttering, It doesnt matter what quilty its in its always the same. Tried changing everything for file type to different usbs with no joy,

    Has anyone else had the same problem or know how to fix it??

    Thanks

    Get a dedicated media player like a wd tv and use that to play your usb movies, you won't have any of these problems then. My tv is the same it sometimes plays usb properly but other times it's jumpy. These wd tv media players only cost about 50 euro and are tiny

    They're probably not designed to do it. Mine isn't a crappy tv it's a Sony Bravia but still doesnt play them well. I'd say the newer tvs handle them better. The media player will have the likes of Netflix too
