Hello All,

 

I want to connect my external hard drive which is connected by Mini B usb male.I want to connect it

to my TV which is HDMI,i can't find any cables or adapters that might do what i need.

 

I was wondering has anyone ever come across this before.

 

Thanks for any suggestions.

Don't think you'll find one. The HDMI port won't know what to do with the USB data. You need something in between to convert the USB data to an HDMI video stream.

Thanks for the reply.

 

I was thinking that would be the way.

 

Have you any suggestions what i would look for?

Something like Western Digital's Live Media Player: http://www.amazon.co...p/dp/B005KOZNBW

 

Currently, $79 at Amazon. Just plug your external USB drive cable into it, and plug the HDMI cable from it to your TV. Also works with network shares. and has streaming apps (like Netflix, Pandora, YouTube, etc).
