DVD sales...

When you say load up the workout on your laptop... does that mean the same thing as download? Or can you do the same thing with an HDMI cable and a flashdrive inserted into the computer? I'm trying to figure out how to use my bonus downloads (for LMR2), and I think I remember something about an HDMI port on my TV, but it's too old of a TV for most of the other methods. I was wondering if I could put my downloads onto a flashdrive and hook my old computer up to my TV (just so I don't have hook and unhook it each time) and just insert a flashdrive. Do you think that's possible? I am so bad at tech stuff that even when I try to Google in order to figure it out... I don't really understand the info I found out. lol

YES, that should work!

@Braille, you didn't say how old your TV set is, but if it has an HDMI port, it's simple to connect your laptop with an HDMI cable. We used to do that but I found it inconvenient to bring the laptop to my workout room & find a stand to put it on (our TV is wall mounted). @vivbc shared she uses the USB port on her DVD player, so I checked & a couple of our players have one. We found that is the most convenient way to use our downloads. If your dvd player has a USB port, you're set! You can either use one large external drive or the small flashdrives (thumb drives, USB sticks). That's what we use. We have them sorted by UB, LB, TB, cardio, circuits, etc. Then we label the flash drives and store them in a little case (cheap off Amazon) on the dvd shelf. Works real well for us. HTH.

ETA: once you figure the best set-up for you, you'll probably start buying more downloads than you initially thought you would. The sales get you new Cathe Live workouts for $5 or 6 bucks - what's not to love?! That's why we keep a list of potential buys.
