The model is Samsung SyncMaster P2470HD. I noticed on the back of my TV/monitor, an USB port (SERVICE). I want also to enable the USB port to play multimedia content from USB stick, but i don't know what to do. I never find informations for this particulary model (i've heard it is a newer model). I entered into service menu with the clasical Samsung sequence, Power Off -> Info -> Menu -> Mute -> Power On but from here...don't know what to do. I want to make a back-up of the TV firmware but i dont know how. However, the USB port on the back, can be enabled to play multimedia content, mp3, jpg, avi (divx) or mkv's ?
Thank you and happy new year.
