Irv radio

Is there any way to play a music usb stick through the Irv radio in a 2020 Rockwood 2608BS travel trailer?

If you could post a picture and/or a model number that would help.

Mine has a USB port on the front and I just choose USB as the source

The instructions that came with my 2507S state the USB port is for charging, only. It's also labeled that way on the front. The only connection to an external device are the HDMI port, or Bluetooth. The latter works well for me but a USB key obviously can't do that.

IRV 62

On our new 2205s, to use a Roku Stick, we, after much trial and effort find that a hdmi cable from the Roku to the front hdmi port on the IRV unit, then select front hdmi input when using the Roku or similar device, select the proper source on the tv and the audio and video work through the IRV speakers and tv speakers, (with a milisecond delay, sounds like an echo) where we turn the tv speakers down and use the IRV's.

Can you not put the Roku stick in the spare port on the TV? Audio would work better if you did, I think.

No. As mentioned it is for charging only. We used the usb port on our 2012 Rockwood to play music. But on our new 2020 2608BS we use bluetooth or plug and mp3 player into the aux port.
