I recently purchased the OLED65B13LA.AEU and wanted to stream movies from my HDD. After transferring them to a USB stick, everything functioned perfectly. I realized using a USB stick every time wasn’t ideal—connecting it directly to my PC via network solved the issue, but still faced problems. The wireless setup would only load the movie for a few seconds, then pause, and there was no sound or subtitles available. Using an Ethernet cable fixed the loading delay, but audio remained absent even on the USB version of the same movie. I’m confused about what I might be doing wrong and need some guidance on resolving this.

Networks operate with specific protocols and TCP/IP stacks. This involves a unique form of data handling that isn’t straightforward. Understanding the advanced features of your smart TV would likely be necessary. I don’t possess that expertise, so for a trial approach, placing the HDD in a USB case and connecting it might help. Another possibility is using an extremely large USB drive to store all the content simultaneously. These methods usually require investment unless you already own such equipment, and there’s no certainty they’d function properly. It might have worked only when there was just one movie on the drive. Using Sneakernet could still be a cost-effective option.
