I have a 40" TCL Roku TV
It has 3 HDMI ports, 1 USB slot and an RCA jack, RED/WHT/YEL.
Because the TV ha so few HDMI ports, I went and bought a 5 port HDMI box and plugged that into one of the TV's HDMI ports. I have my Xbox, Playstation 4 and VHS to DVD recorder plugged into the 5 port HDMI box. Typically, I only run 1 device at a time, but with the USB thing, I would like to be able to have more than one USB device plugged in, such as one of those mood light things that uses USB for power, the TV powers that mood light bar, but then I can't use my USB stick in the TV.
So I have this 7 port USB device, each port has its own on/off switch, I was just wondering, if it was possible to use that 7 port USB device in the TVs USB port, or would the TV not like that? Because in order for me to run the mood light and USB stick, I would need 2 USB ports turned on, and again the TV only has 1 USB port.
Thanks if you might have an answer for me.
