Yes, you can loop photos or videos using the USB Port but it requires a bit of setup since the TV’s built-in media player doesn’t natively support looping. Here’s how you can do it: The TV has a USB port that allows you to play media files (like photos and videos in formats such as MP4, AVI, or JPG) from a USB drive. However, the default media player on the Fire TV platform is fairly basic and primarily designed for simple playback, without an explicit option to loop content. To enable looping, you’ll need to download a third-party media player app from the Fire TV Appstore that supports this feature. One popular option is VLC for Fire, a free app widely praised for its versatility. After plugging your USB drive into the TV’s USB port, follow these steps: 1 Go to the Fire TV Appstore using the TV’s home screen. 2 Search for and download “VLC for Fire.” 3 Open the VLC app, grant it permission to access your USB drive, and locate your photos or videos. 4 VLC allows you to create a playlist from the files on your USB drive. Add your photos or videos to the playlist. 5 In VLC’s playback settings, enable the “Repeat” or “Loop” option (typically found in the playback controls or settings menu). This will make your content play continuously in a loop. This workaround has been confirmed to work based on user feedback and technical details about the TV’s capabilities. The Insignia F20 Series supports USB media playback, and apps like VLC enhance functionality beyond the default player, which some users have noted flattens file structures and lacks advanced features like looping. With VLC, you can loop either a single file or an entire playlist, making it ideal for displaying slideshows of photos or repeating videos seamlessly. So, while the TV itself doesn’t offer a built-in looping feature through its native interface, using VLC via the USB port gets the job done effectively! I hope this helps.
