ShallowGal Posted August 11, 2018 Posted August 11, 2018 Is it possible to watch YouTube videos from your phone if connected to the Furrion receiver with USB? I've searched "Furrion" and only get 5 results. I know there's more info than that out there. Thank you!

Ken_Judy Posted August 11, 2018 Posted August 11, 2018 The TV has multiple direct inputs. You do not have to go through the Furrion. You may have to buy an adaptor to go from your phone to the hdmi input. Apple has one for the iphone but I don't know about Android phones. 1
Moderators SeaDawg Posted August 12, 2018 Moderators Posted August 12, 2018 Back in the day, we would play netflix movies on the TV at home via a cable from the laptop to a non smart TV. I suspect a cable from Best buy or elsewhere, from your phone ( mini or micro USB) to the TV HDMI port would do the same. In today's more wireless world, there's likely a solution for casting or mirroring with a Roku, Chromecast, or firetv device. I suspect someone on here has figured out that path.... Good luck.

Ken_Judy Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 I use a fire tv stick at home and it plugs right into the hdmi. Of course you will then need a wifi hotspot off a cell phone or other device or strong wifi from some other source. The tv may have a usb port to power the fire stick as well. 1
ShallowGal Posted August 13, 2018 Author Posted August 13, 2018 SMH, it never occurred to me to connect directly to the television. Thank you all for your kind replies. Chris & Duke Chadwell 🐾Maddie & Baxter🐾 Elite II Hull 292 2022 F-250 Lariat 7.3 Godzilla 4x4 Lakeland,FL
Moderators Mike and Carol Posted August 13, 2018 Moderators Posted August 13, 2018 I connect my iPhone to the TV through the HDMI cable (I installed a splitter to make it easier). Because the TV is connected to the Furrion with audio cables, I can get the sound through the Furrion and the picture on the TV. Mike 1 Texas Hill Country | 2016 Elite II #135 | 2020 Ram 2500 6.7L

It also has RCA cables for TV sound. 1 Tom & Cheryl LE II #305 2018 GMC 2500HD SLT Duramax

I unhook the HDMI from the Furrion and hook into my iPhone. My iPhone then provides the video to the TV. The TV provides sound to the Furrion via the RCA cable. I put an HDMI splitter in the attic above the TV. The HDMI from the Furrion terminates at the splitter. On the other side of the splitter I have a short HDMI cable into the TV. The splitter provides the spot to insert my iPhone. Mike 2 Texas Hill Country | 2016 Elite II #135 | 2020 Ram 2500 6.7L
