I have moved into the new unit and there is a TV with 2HDMI ports and 1USB only.
I used to stream movies from my server (Ubuntu) to my old PC via miniDLNA but since this new one is a crappy one and does not have LAN port ... is there any other way how to do that?
I was thinking about buying some cheap NAS or other smart unit, with which I would connect via USB to that TV and NAS will connect to samba on my server ...
Scenario:
TV -------> usb_cable -----> NAS -----> samba_share -----> SERVER
Is such scenario possible? is there any other (better) way I can do that?
Thanks
The USB on most TV's are for updating the firmware on the input/main board. What's the tv model? Does your "crappy" one have wireless? – Tim_Stewart – 2018-02-03T20:53:14.963

The TV may support a WIFI adapter via USB. Otherwise I'd use a third party HDMI device that you can stream DLNA to. – mt025 – 2018-02-04T04:45:09.180
I have a usb wifi reciever ... but I doubt it is supported .... which HDMI device do you mean? Can you give me an example? – Mr.P – 2018-02-04T05:03:51.150
