Solution A A americanaudiophile Dec 4, 2018 As kanewolf says you don't need a USB port on the TV at all. You will need a 5v power supply of at least 1a with a micro usb plug to connect it to the Chromestick. https/www.amazon.com/Super-Power-Supply%C2%AE-Raspberry-External/dp/B00ITYAASG Plug the stick into an HDMI input. Done.
