Hi faggots. My questions are what do i need to send video from a tablet to a tv? I have a small 5tb hard drive that is completely full of tv and movies. Do i need a tablet with video out or just a tablet with 2 usb ports? 1 to connect the hard drive to the tablet and 1 to send the video to the tv? Or should i just put the video that I'm going to watch onto the tablet then connect the tablet to the tv? And what kind of cable do i need to send video from a tablet to a tv mounted in my truck? I don't think i can just connect the hard drive directly to the tv since the videos are all different formats and i need something like vlc to play the videos.

Thanks

In that case, you might have a device that supports HDMI out. Android devices from the past few years generally support this. I'd research the model of tablet or phone you have and if it supports it, buy an adapter to HDMI. I can let you know if you tell me the model. If your device does not support HDMI out, go buy a Chromebook with HDMI out.
