    Hi,

    Is it possible to get a USB OTG cable for the new iPad Pro 12" that I can plug in a USB device with videos on it, and play them directly off the USB device? Basically a lightning cable on one end and a female USB-A connector on the other end.

    If so, can I get it in a bricks and mortar shop in Dublin? Do I need to get a specific app that will play the videos (Does iOS support x265?)?
    Will it power a small USB hard drive? Does iOS support NTFS?

    Thanks.

    Not sure but here is another solution....

    I got one of these...https://www.leefco.com/products/leef-ibridge-mobile-memory.

    Best thing since the sliced pan. Load of movies and can play it on any Apple device with Lightening Connector. I got the 64Gb one.

    Just to add a bit of info to the reply, Apple will add h265 support in iOS 11 due sometime next month.
