As per title, my aunt bought a new Sharp Android TV for my grandma. After I stick in a usb full of mp4 videos into the tv usb slot, it appears as external usb on the tv. The problem is I cannot browse the usb, or even select usb as the source. So how do I watch the videos in the usb ya?

Can try USB hub with TV box.

My current setup is Chromecast with google TV + USB C hub. Add in thumb drive for extra storage and can browse in Chromecast
