Fixed: Unsupported Video Files Format on USB Drive in LG Smart TV!

[@niroshannalaka1280]

I just bought LG 43 inch 4k tv yesterday. WEB os crap. Plugged my USB and tried to play a favourite movie of mine and sound file type is not supported. Cant download VLC or any type of media player. This is my last LG product.

my LG C4 55 says it supports MP4 how ever I have plugged a flash drive into the usb port with an mp4 video on it and it still says "this file type is not supported"

[@Fix.369]

Anon-f8v Bro, If possible try using another USB drive to check, if the problem is with the Specific USB Drive or not.😊

[@Anon-f8v]

@@Fix.369 I figured out the problem, I had to format the USB drive from exfat to NTFS and than the TV played nicely with the mp4 files.

[@rohittiwari5706]

Which convertor and from where i download?

[@Fix.369]

rohittiwari5706 Bro, Search for converters in Google and use the one that suits you the best.😊

The LG TV doesn't support the most commonly used video and audio files.

[@Fix.369]

brinibrini9117 Bro, Convert unsupported files to a compatible format, it should work.☺️

@@Fix.369 I have the same problem with my LG tv, but I am not agree with you. Why I have to convert almost everything if I want to watch them on my super expensive tv? Why the engineers at LG cannot fix this issue? Could a codec software be a big challenge for them to produce? My 15 years old PC with a free player is able to play everything. But my brand new LG tv is not. Every time it is piss me up.

Help me please i have an old 2011 lg tv it does not play videos i tried following the instructions iys like greek to me

[@fochiemomza4443]

Which one is the supported format, how do i find out

[@kranwa15]

LG tv does not support USB drive formatted as exFat, problem with Fat32, you can't copy movie files thats more than 4GB.

[@Fix.369]

kranwa15 Bro, Try using a USB Drive and formatting it into NTFS can be helpful. 😊

I’m trying to play mp4 and say it doesn’t support

[@Fix.369]

user-vw5jr5zk3l Bro, Try ejecting the USB Drive, then Cold Boot your LG TV then try re-inserting the USB Drive. It might fix your issue.☺️
