If, like Brigitte Bardot, you are not a big fan of the programs offered by French television, you can use your TV to play movies. You do not need an Internet connection to do this. Just plug your hard drive or USB key into the port.
You got married recently or you enjoyed a family vacation abroad, you can watch these photos with your family on the TV instead of doing it on your phone or tablet. The principle is the same as for movies. You just connect the hard drive and that’s it!
To record a program
If you are out and about and you are afraid of missing your favorite game or a special show presented by Jean-Pierre Foucault, you can very well record it. On some devices you can record directly. In most cases, you will need a hard drive or a USB key. You just have to connect it to the USB port and make the necessary configurations.
Save storage space
Most smart TVs do not have the same storage as computers. However, some operating systems allow you to install applications on external memories. This is possible for Android TV.
Think about updates!
Smart TVs automatically save new updates. When purchasing, you should reassure yourself if this is the case with the device you have just purchased. Otherwise, you will have to do these updates manually from external devices.
