Solved! Hard disk play on tv

Solution
If the TV can't read the files at all check that the disc format is compatible with the TV. If the TV doesn't support the file types that your content is in then you will need to convert them. You can also add a Western Digital TV Media box as a front end and feed that via HDMI to the TV. It reads most file types.
Might help if you told us the format of the content on the external hard drive and the make/model of your LED TV.
