Hi,
I'm looking for a app in webos that plays video from a USB disk.
I have searching about file manager for webos and I found a post requesting this feature.
Would be possible I could write app to read and write files from a USB disk connected?

Hi @MOINUDDIN_SHAIKH, welcome to the forum!

Yes, it is possible, but the way might be different depending on your purpose.

If you want to (just) play the video from a USB,

  1. Get a video file path using com.webos.service.mediaindexer | webOS Open Source Edition
  2. Using the path, play the file in your app. You can use <video> tag or other ways you prefer.
