I haven’t heard of any feature to let you use the CT like this. I recognize this is standard for a lot of computing devices but Tesla isn’t using standards.
The thumb drive would also need a video player software to run it. There are many some are free open source.
Or upload the movie to a cloud account and stream it through the browser? Haven't tried it, but should work.
I have tried all the common formats I know without success, I have asked the same question here. I don't understand why this should be a issue. They also do not play audio files like Audiobooks well on the media player. It does not remember its place and you have to fast forward the files every time you get in the truck. Very annoying! I listen to audiobook all the time but not now.... They need a GOOD Media player like VLC on there would help.
Well I am glad most people can afford to do that, I for one am not. Most of what I want to watch and listen too is not streamed, so this is all I have.....
Try loading the audiobooks on your phone and stream them to the truck via Bluetooth (I do this to listen to podcasts, though I don't download them locally - I just stream them). Or upload them to a free Google Drive account and navigate to that via the truck's browser. Plugging a USB into a computer, uploading files to it, then carrying that to the truck, plugging it in, then navigating to it in order to play audiobooks seems like the most inefficient of all the many options...
