How can I view my digitized files on my TV?Updated 2 hours ago

Legacybox does not currently have a native app for smart TVs. However, you can still watch your digitized photos and videos on your TV using one of the options below.

Option 1: Cast or mirror from a phone, tablet, or computer

You can play your Legacybox Cloud files on a larger screen by casting or mirroring your device to your TV.

Common methods include:

  • Chromecast (Android, iPhone, Chrome browser)

  • Apple AirPlay (iPhone, iPad, Mac with Apple TV or compatible smart TV)

  • Built-in screen mirroring on some smart TVs

How this works:

  1. Open your Legacybox Cloud account on your phone, tablet, or computer

  2. Start playing a photo or video

  3. Use your device’s cast or screen-mirroring feature to display it on your TV

If your TV does not support casting or mirroring, you might try a device connected to your TV like Roku, Amazon Fire TV, or Apple TV.



Option 2: Connect your computer to your TV with HDMI

For the most stable and high-quality experience, you can connect your computer directly to your TV using an HDMI cable.

  1. Connect your computer to your TV with an HDMI cable

  2. Set your TV to the correct HDMI input

  3. Open Legacybox Cloud in a web browser

  4. Play your photos or videos on the TV

This option is ideal for:

  • Longer home movies

  • Family gatherings or presentations

  • Situations where you want the most reliable playback



Note

  • All viewing options stream directly from your Legacybox Cloud account

  • Video quality depends on your internet connection and the method you use
