Solution A A americanaudiophile Jul 24, 2017 You can use something like this if you don't need to stream https/www.amazon.com/Buyee-Portable-Outputs-Auto-play-Loop-play/dp/B00JA8I0NW/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1481164867&sr=8-2&keywords=Media+player+composite Also some DVD players have USB ports you can connect the drive to. The drive would have to be formatted and have video files that are compatible with either the box or DVD.
