Can I Make a USB Act Like a CD-ROM on My TV?
Asked by
CoolCactus79
I've got a USB drive with an ISO image on it, but when I plug it into my TV, it just shows the file system instead of running the ISO. Is there any way to convert the USB so that the TV recognizes it as a CD-ROM and runs the ISO? If that's not possible, is there any way to set up a USB that plays something like a DVD menu? I'm hoping to have a better navigation system for my videos than just a plain file explorer.

Nope, unfortunately, a TV isn't a computer, so it can't mount ISO files or run applications. It usually just plays video files directly from the USB.

RexRambler39: What if I used a Raspberry Pi Zero to create a device that plays the ISO and connects to the HDMI port? Would that work?
