Newb: Movies on TV from PC/USB memory etc

    Hi all, I hope this is an ok place to post this ...

    We have a collection of movies and tv programs that we moved on to our PC from DVDs but since have lost the original DVDs in a house move.

    I was wondering how best we can play them on our TV. The TV is a HD tv but has a USB port that only plays Jpegs and MP3s.

    Do I need to get something like a Blu ray box with a media/internet/wifi thing built in ? We don't have a lot of dosh. Do they have a USB port for this kind fo thing ? Would an Apple tv box have that ?

    Tks.

    I thought that wasn't available and doesn't work in Ireland ?

    Not that I'm aware Piliger, I only know it was sold out on the google play store, as long as you're watching your movies in Chrome it should work fine.

    This is off topic for here, but where to put it? I'm going to move it to Home Entertainment (with apologies to the mods there if it doesn't quite fit the bill either)
