I'm trying to play movies from my USB port, but when I plug it I can't .... My LG 47" TV will recognize and open the flash drive, but shows empty.

Nope, you certainly can't. The TV can only show still photos or play music. It's not capable of playing videos.

The manual is here:

Burn your movies to DVD or Blu-Ray and you can plug a player into the TV, also described in the manual.

Some TV models have a USB port so that users could play videos and movies from USB on TV. You can try the following steps:

1. Connect your readable and writable USB drive to computer
2. Copy your movies to USB drive and then disconnect your USB drive from computer.
3. Connect the USB device to the Sony TV USB port. Turn on the connected USB device if necessary.
4. Press the HOME button on Sony remote controller to open the menu.
5. Enter the target USD drive.
6. Select the file you want to play back, and then press the play button to start playing movies on TV via USB drive.
It's quite easy to play movies from USB on smart TV devices.

Dvds have many display formats.
If the screen is small on some, then press the "wide" button on your flat screen tv remote. It will offer you bigger screen format options.

Yes, I know Panasonic DVD S48, if your movie file is right divx avi movie file, you can directly transfer the divx avi movie file to your usb disk and play on your Panasonic DVD S48, but if your movie files isn\'t divx avi movie file, you have to use a right software to convert your movies to right divx avi movies, then transfer to your usb disk, convert any movies to divx avi movies.

what kind of player have you been used?.

If this is reffering to having a pc/laptop plugged into the screen, try starting the computer with the tv already plugged in and on the correct channel. If this doesn't cure your problem then try setting the screen resolution in your display properties. set to 1920x1080 or 1280x720, this should cure your problem, if this is not a computer related issue, have a look in the display settings for your tv and see if there is a resize option or similar to adjust the image size.

Hope that this helps.

the flash drive connection is usually for viewing pictures, but in most cases its used to upgrade the tv

you may have to go into the menu of the player to change the setting!

Its quite possible your laptop has lost its association with your TV as a "secondy monitor".

To check this, minimise everything and right click on the desktop and go to Properties. Then navigate to the settings tab. This will show you how many displays it considers itself to have.

Click on number 2 (if visable) and click on extend my windows desktop to this monitor.

You should now be able to go between screens
