The Sony XBR-43X800E and XBR-65X900E TVs use Android or Google apps to display content from a USB port.

The BillionDollarArtGallery has two videos that most people watch:

These videos include music, which you can mute with your TV's remote control if you prefer not to hear the music. Depending on the version, you may have one or multiple videos that can be played in succession.
