Choices For Getting Video Onto 1st Generation Nexus 7

(1/1)

Jim1348:
My family and  I will be going on a vacation in March.  I want to download some movies and other videos onto my Nexus 7 for viewing when I don't have access to wifi.  What are currently some of my best choices?  Somewhere I read that it might be possible to save some content from Netflix and transfer it to my Nexus 7.  Where do I start to learn about that?  Also, my Nexus 7 is not rooted and I just upgraded to the most current Android OS.

A WiFi enabled hard drive should work. It'll create a hot spot that a number of devices can access at once. Plus you can plug it into the lview...

CBers:
You can transfer video to flash drives and with an OTG cable, connect to your tablet then use Nexus Media Importer.

S.Prime:
If your tablet is rooted, StickMount from the Play Store and and external USB source connected by an OTG cable will work.

CBers:
I used to use StickMount, but found issues, so I still use NMI on my rooted devices.
