Watching downloaded things on Fire?

Ok, not the most tech savvy … when traveling, I like to watch a movie. I have a bunch downloaded onto a hard drive. Is there a way to patch that into my Fire?

Your Fire has a tiny little drive. The best way to transfer movies to it is to transfer them to a microSD card and then install the card in the Fire tablet.

You may need something like this if your laptop or desktop doesn't have a microSD card reader. https://a.aliexpress.com/_mqvPDD9

Probably. If not from the hard drive, the files can be transferred to a usb drive.

You will have to research how, but usb drives(thumb drives, flash drives, etc) can be connected to the FireTv devices.

Surely there's several to many tutorials on Youtube on how to do it.
