How do I physically connect my Samsung 3D Blu-ray player as well as external USB drives to my freestyle projection TV? Not wirelessly. Not with Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. But actually physically.

Ok thanks for the update, it must be frustrating especially with there being mixed views and reviews out there but always better to check with Tech Support first. I look forward to your update

Ok it's just as I thought. I spoke to an actual technician who confirmed that an ext drive can't be connected to the freestyle because the freestyle needs a media player. I thought it had one as I can stream from my tab/phone/laptop but it actually uses the player in the other device.

He recommended 2 different micro HDMI to HDMI adapters and said I should be able able to access a usb thumb drive or ext drive in the BD player. I do have a 4xUSB hub in case the player can handle multiple connected usb. If not, at least I should be able to access a single HDD or thumb drive.

I'll report back next week when I have the adapters.

And I will also look around for a BenQ or Epson or other laser projector with built-in ports or ability to connect a multiport adapter.

Thanks for your's and everyone's help. If anyone has any other ideas or solutions please let me know. I'll report back next week. :smiling-face:
