There are various ways to play it through your set. I use a cheap RCA set top box that plays video via a USB stick. Other ways include converting the DVI, HDMI or Display Port connectors (plus audio) to video. Below is a link to an HDMI to NTSC video convertor.

There are all sorts of solutions on Amazon.

WARNING! WARNING!

Those HDMI to RCA Converters have a very bad reputation for poor / no color, especially with vintage televisions, I have seen this first hand, having tried 2 of them, they are JUNK!

I have changed to “convert to DVD” method, long ago, as bulk DVD blanks are very cheap, and the conversion software is easy to find if you look in the right places.
