Like most TVs mine has a USB input. Whenever I want to watch or listen to media files on my TV, I save them to a flash drive and plug it in. Usually the back of the TV is hard to access, so I plug this cable into the back of the TV and make a jack. easily accessible. That way I can take my flash drive and plug it in without trying to access the back of the TV. This cable is perfect. No complaints. I highly recommend.
