What do you mean, "the cloud". What service are you actually running? Is it stored on a NAS, on Dropbox, on work server.

Thanks for the reply. Dropbox or Google Drive, although I'd use anything if one of these weren't available. I basically want to play mp3's on my TV without have to use physical storage.

The TV has a built in player, if you can access the media, it will play it. It might just be easier to put all ur mp3s onto a USB stick nd keep it plugged into the TV.

Can it access media on Dropbox or Google or something similar though? That's the functionality I'm looking for. I can go down the USB route but it just makes it harder to keep the library updated.

You can use the browser app to access Dropbox, seems like a hassle tho. I think the way you want this to work isn't going to happen. It's not like running a plex server or something for media, because its stored on a 3rd party server, you are limited by how you can access it.
