You cant simply plug a USB drive into a TV and play any movies / music that's on the drive.

You need some sort of device that will read the USB drive then transfer the data to the TV.
A TV only displays what is being sent to it.

You need something like a PC, Laptop or maybe a Xbox in between.

Not to sure about the Xbox - Don't have one.
