This TV is a steal at this price and even better if you can get it cheaper. I has a wonderfully sharp picture and the built in Fire TV works flawlessy. The only negative was the TV was stated as not supporting video playback via the USB port. Virtually every other smart TV with a USB port allows video playback, so it
struck me as odd, but I never checked myself. Even the manual states it only supports JPG files via the USB
BUY NOWport. I happened to read a negative review in which the poster mentioned that he had been told by Insignia customer support that the USB port could playback video provided he/she download ES Explorer as well as VLC media player as apps onto the Insignia NS-55DF710NA19. I was skeptical that this would work, because I haven't read ANYWHERE else that video playback is possible through the USB port. I can definitely verify, though, that video playback of MP4 files works flawlessly with the Insignia NS-55DF710NA19. Download ES Explorer and VLC media player. The thumb drive used must be formatted in FAT32 file format. Insert the USB drive into the USB port. Initially, once you open ES Explorer, you will need to scroll down and select the USB drive and then select mount. ES Explorer will do nothing at first but eventually the screen will close. Once it does, open ES Explorer again and the USB drive should then be a viewable source underneath "Internal Media." Click on the USB drive and you will see your media files or folders. Select your MP4 file, select play, and enjoy!
