• Move to Photos, Videos & Music at the top of the Smart Hub screen. Select the type of media you want to play and then the USB device that contains the files. We suggest that you choose Videos and run the BillionDollarArtGallery video in the main directory of the USB. If you choose Photos, you can play the slideshow in the Painting directory.
