You have to check the features off the Smart TV.Normally usb at TV levels are for pictures(cameras etc.) and mp3 music.streaming a High Resolution movie requires Caching and video related hardware. if Smart TV says it does mp4 then your movies have to be in that format. This USB is backward compatible. What you as is more off feature on the TV than this unit.If TV says it does avi,mp4 no problem. i have a cheap core2 duo optiplex and use Big Tv Screen as monitor,and watch anything i want. hope this helps

I don't know. I use a seagate movie player to access my movies. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

If your using the USB then yes, but I would recommend a NAS hard drive because it streams faster for video's than USB does. Hope this helps you.

This disk cabinet really is just an external HD rack to be attached to a computing device that can access the disk through eSATA controller. If your Smart TV have SATA/eSATA interface (I really doubt if smart TV is anything like that) and has the means to access the different disks, then you can. Like some other responded, they have a PC with this disk cabinet and have the PC display onto the TV (as a large monitor). But then, you need some kind of remote keyboard/mouse or maybe the Media PC remote.

yes you can. you'll be able to use its android features (watching movies, youtube, etc.) by connecting it to the tv using hdmi cable.

Yes you plug it I to your TV and you can watch movies or whatever from your Windows Pro on your TV

Well, yes, provided your smart tv has a standard a/v input (rca plugs). With this type of connection, you will be able to see live video from your mobius (if it is on prior to connecting) and view recorded video/photos saved on the micro SD card. However, the video you see on screen will not be in HD. What you see on your tv will be 480 lines of resolution.

Sure you can download files in the PC after you install it an operating system and a hard drive, but I don't know the quality when you try to watch it in your TV. I use mine for recording videos from my security cameras

yes it can but this device is much to slow to stream any movie and connecting a hard drive to it takes some time to open.

I don't own a TV, so I'm unaware of what smart TVs are capable of. Maybe if you put the drive in a USB enclosure... There's no remote with the optical drive.

I don't have smart TV. You have to chech if your TV can read the format of this hard drive that it was foemated usely is NTFS

In theory, you should be able to; but in practice, I cannot say for sure since I do not have a Smart TV to test this theory out. If you already have the capability to play HD movies from your computer through the Smart TV, then the odds are more in your favor. Once you connect the external hard drives to your computer, then it should be just a matter of selecting your new NAS drives as the source.

Yes you can, however I have not used this feature, it's too cumbersome. I have mine attached to my main TV which is a LG Smart TV which already has streaming and is much easier to use. If I were doing it today I would buy a sound bar, and maybe a sub, CD's, DVD' and Blue Ray's are on the way out. My non smart TV I use a ROKU box, much easier to use.

yes, u can also plug in a usb flash drive that has music, movies, or pics as well

Yes, since it doesn't access the files directly. You'll need an iPhone, iPod, Mac, etc using AirPlay to stream to it.

You could do this on this device. Just keep in mind that downloading movies is a violation of law . If you still do this, make sure your TV has a compatible USB port on it somewhere, and refer to your user manual on how to connect to the USB device.

Yes you can. You don't need a smart TV. It has 3 different ways to connect a TV or DVD. HDMI is easiest and the best picture, but it can accommodate TV's without HDMI.

I don't believe so I never tried. I just used it to simply watch DVDs. But I'm pretty sure you can't.

You may attach a Roku player to the TV via the HDMI in port, as long as your Roku box has HDMI output. The TV itself is not a "smart" tv. The Roku box is the "smart" part :)

I don't know, sorry.In the specifications is not indicated for this use.It has the USB output only: it is the typical external drive.But if the smart TV can manage usb external drives, is an high compatible drive.It is all I can say.
