    USB flash drive

    Thanks, folks I have been in communication with the vender. Actually, with the manufacturer. Chinese. Their statement is that my Onkyo has a built in AV component but no actual ports for external HDMI or USB 2.0 (true). It took several exchanges, but they finally have written (in very...

    USB flash drive

    First, I thank Alabalcho and Ruggo 181 for your suggestions regarding wanting to play my flash drives through my old Onkyo TX-DS484. I received the UVIA portable media player in the mail yesterday and worked with it yesterday evening and again this morning. I first connected it directly into...

    USB flash drive

    I own an Onkyo TX-DS484 home audio system on which I would like to play music flash drives. The Onkyo is old but very good. But it has no aux port on the front or anywhere else. Is there an external adapter or some such that will solve my problem?
