SMART TV KD-55X8509C - PROBLEM VIEWING PHOTOS. Casting from a PC, Chromecast, and via USB stick.

Miracat not supported on this model. I can cast from my phone and tablet but not my desktop. Using a USB stick to combine multiple inputs from an 8 week holiday but it doesn't matter how I save them on the stick, when I start slideshow in Album (no problem) it always shows the most recent photos first, so have to view holiday in reverse.

I cannot see any viewing options for USB stick and cannot access the 3 menu bars at top let of Album screen.

Any suggestions?

Hi 50088168 ,

I'd recommend changing the order on a PC by renaming each picture into a number in a ascending order.

Cheers,

Thanks for the response but 2000 of them!! I don't think so.

It is almost inconceivable there is not an option to sort by date.

Kind regards

It is an android tv you can choose any other app that does what you like in the store!

Moreover your tv support miracast but miracast itself is quite embarrassing as compatibility between different makers. But your tv has a chromecast embedded so you can use Google home app on your android device or chrome browser on your windows pc to mirror your screen
