New Stereo
Looking to replace my wall mount radio. Does anyone know of an RV radio that will also the play back of movies from the USB port. Want to put my movies on a portable drive or flash and play them back ...

we use the hdmi input on the tv so the kids can watch movies from their kindle. Could probably do the same thing with a laptop. Just need a hdmi output on the laptop. Getting sound from the tv to the stereo however gets a little tricky. I'm not sure if there's even an open audio input on the backs of these stereos
On the Jensen I know you can input audio to them. Would rather not tie up my lap top playing movies. That is why a radio that will play video files from a USB would be great.
There are TVs that will play movies directly from a stick or an external drive. If so, then you can use a patch cord for audio from the TV to the stereo's aux-in port. You might have to watch file formats as well as the format on the drive. Some TVs will only read a drive formatted in FAT or FAT32, but won't read NTFS. Might look at wi-fi or bluetooth options, as well.
