Switch to Professional Mode: Change your TV to Professional Mode to access the more advanced settings necessary for this setup.

Access the Professional Menu: Use the Home button on your remote control to access the home screen, then select the 'Professional Menu App'.

Set USB as the Default Source:

• Go to the Sources menu within the Professional Menu.
• Choose USB as your source, which sets the TV to look for media files on the USB drive upon startup.​​

Enable Auto Play: Activate any autoplay settings to ensure that the TV automatically starts playing content from the USB when it turns on.

Schedule USB as the Source:

• Find options like 'Timers', 'Scheduling', or 'Auto Start Settings'.
• Create or modify a schedule setting the specific times for the TV to turn on using the USB as the source.
• Configure details such as the exact time, repetition schedule (daily, weekdays, etc.), and volume level if applicable.

Save and Confirm Settings: Make sure to save your changes and ensure that the schedule is activated.

Test the Setup: To verify functionality, you might want to test by setting the turn-on time to a few minutes ahead of the current time.

Check Supported Media Formats: Ensure the media files on your USB are in formats compatible with your TV. Common video formats include MP4, AVI, MKV, and MOV. For images, JPG, BMP, and PNG are typically supported.

Troubleshooting a Black Screen:

• Correct Formatting: Confirm that the USB drive is formatted with a file system like FAT32
• File Compatibility: Double-check that the video and image files are in formats that your TV can play.
• Proper Insertion and File Accessibility: Ensure the USB drive is properly inserted. Also, verify that files are not stored in deep subfolders, as this can make them difficult for your TV's media system to access.
