Hello everyone,
I have a Grundig Full HD TV - 1080p - 1920x1080 pixels.
I can't play my MPEG4-AVC-H264 videos, 25 frames/s, at 1280x720, 2000Kb/s on my USB stick.
Those in the format 960x540 or 1000x562, 2000kb/s are played well!
Can you explain to me why?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Happy New Year and take care of yourselves.

    Hello,
    What is the full reference of your TV?

    Good evening,
    Your TV reads MP4s well, BUT some TVs "digest" USB sticks poorly with certain heavy files due to speed issues in writing/reading. Try using an external hard drive (max 500GB due to the TV's limited USB power supply)

      Thank you very much for your response!
      I am using USB 3 flash drives, though!
      The files are 1.3 GB...
      I will try with a smaller file for testing...
      Have a good evening.

    You're welcome, and feel free to drop by to share your news or if you have any other questions, and have a lovely evening as well.
    NB: using "tu" is a habit of friendliness on this forum, but if it bothers you...;-)
