smart monitor M50 media player

l0bs_ter · ‎06-10-2022

hello everyone

I plan to buy a Samsung smart monitor M50 and have some questions:

- I have some videos on the external hard drive, can I connect it through USB port and play them?

- does it have a built-in media player to play mkv/mp4 videos with x264/x265 codec?

- as the system is Tizen, is it possible to install 3rd party media player apps to play them?

Hi I have the M70A via USB yes but doubt every format, I think VLC is on the app store.

thanks
I've read that Tizen app store is shut down
how is it possible to install VLC on your M70A?
and where can i have a list of available apps for these smart monitors (M50 or M70)?

Just checked the TV M70A app store there are no tools like VLC, not sure how Plex works.
