I've purchased a 1k€ Sony Bravia a week and a half ago, and I've done so with the context of "If a 300€ LG WebOS can do it, then this'll be perfect".
I've been digging online, but there's nothing current/recent enough to sathe my ponder.
So basically, I've got a 300€ LG WebOS smartTV that I've purchased as a replacement for my sister's TV one full year ago.
We're all perfectly satisfied with that TV.
We always watch stuff, primarily anime, together on it.
It's uterly convenient, as all I've gotta do is simply connect an external HDD via the TV's USB port.
I was like, if a 300€ LG WebOS can handle this, then I know I'm far in the green with a premium device such as a Bravia TV with Android...
What the hell.
Everything stutters as fuck, or simply put, everything on my HDD is unplayable on the TV.
Am I seriously to drop the hope of having the convenience that our 300€ LG WebOS based smart TV has been providing us for the last year, on this new, what was assumed to be a vastly superior TV?
Don't even tell me about converting.. That is a TREDMENDOUS nuissance the kind of which I exactly counted on avoiding already a year ago when I had purchased the LG.
I'm opening a post on this because if this is actual fact which cannot be circumvented, if not proven false to begin with, I want to return the TV as the retailor I'd bought it from offers a 14 day return period.
Edit: The TV model: KD - 55XE8577
Edit2: What's up? Why the downvotes on the OP?
Put the video file on your computer and run "MediaInfo" on it, and reply back with what it says.

It's probably h.264 Hi10P, which is horribly unstandard (in the consumer space), and was really popular with anime fansubs for a while.
Hi10P requires CPU processing, and typically needs a beefy processor to play smoothly.
Note: this is often called "10-bit", but is different from 10-bit HEVC/h.26 5 .
10-bit HEVC/h.265 = good
10-bit AVC/h.264 (Hi10P) = bad
