Photos on my TV with a USB

I want to see my photos on my TV with a USB and I don't want anything to do with the WEB? I put my USB with photos in my USB's on my TV but it wouldn't see it.

I had a similar issue.
Can you get the TV to see the USB?

No it can't see the USB. The manual said make sure it's FAT 32 which is what exFAT is. I played movies on it but it just won't play photos. I did buy a device that would play my photos but that was a long time age. I went to amazon to see if there was something I could buy but I don't even know what to ask for?

But do you have a laptop? Without the web you should be able to connnect HDMI from laptop to TV and mirror on TV what you see on the laptop

exFat is not fat32
Some old devices cant read exFat .
Format it as fat32 & see if its readable .

It may just be that USB stick it doesnt like. Try another .

Probably can't read usb3 being 6 years old, as you say try usb2.

On my Veon tv there is a separate option to look at pictures, and another option to watch movies.
