How do I get my cloud to work with Samsung tv

Hi I’ve just bought a 4tb my cloud home and want to view family photos/vids on my Samsung tv. I’ve hard wired the cloud to the Samsung hub via usb but the tv is not picking it up? Can anyone help an ageing technophobe?

@Mylesedwards Have you looked at the User Manual, Chapter One, USB ports and Chapter Two?

Hi Cat0w thanks for your response the device did not come with instructions so your link was very useful. It says you can’t connect usb to pc so I’m assuming this will be the same for my tv.

I have an external hitachi hdd which the smart tv picks up straight away. Should I be getting a usb to hdmi cable?

Thanks joey it’s quite complicated so I’ve asked the very friend that told me to get this product to decipher your link.

Cheers
