Playing content from USB storage devices
Only in connected mode, your Home screen has the
Roku Media Player
tile. Otherwise,
the Home screen has the
USB Media Player
tile. With either player, you can play personal
music, video, and photo files from a personal USB flash drive or hard disk connected
to the TV’s USB port.
To use this feature, make sure your media files are compatible with the Roku/USB
Media Player. To see the latest list of supported formats, view

. The Roku/USB Media Player displays supported file types only, and hides file
types it knows it cannot play.
Note
: If you do not see the Roku Media Player on your Home screen, it might have
been uninstalled. You can reinstall it from the Roku Channel Store by using the
Streaming Channels
menu option or the
Add Channels
shortcut. The USB Media Player in
non-connected mode cannot be uninstalled.
For more information about playing back your personal videos, music, and photos, go
