How do I play movies on a USB on my old television?
You are talking about a CRT Tv with no digital input while USB is a digital medium. Therefore it would require conversion of the signal from digital to analogue. This is neither desirable nor recommended because of loss in quality but to answer your question : yes it is possible.You will need a DVD player or similar device that has a USB port. These devices usually have RCA out - the red, white and yellow cable which you mentioned and it goes into the TV. So: pen drive goes into DVD player and connect DVD player to TV with RCA cable. Its the only way. Seems like a fruitless way to to do it but that's how it can be done.

Why don't movies in DVD format fill the entire screen on my new TV?
3 possibilities -1) Aspect ratio on television set incorrectly (as mentioned above) Use your TV remote to change - it varies by TV, but typically there's a 16:9 vs. 4:3 setting (which you'd want set to16:9, then there are various 'zoom' settings that can change the appearance. if your issue is that you have black or white space to left or right of pic, then this is likely your problem.2) Aspect ratio on your cable box/dish box, etc. Same as above; often will combine with TV settings making it even more difficult to figure out. Set TV to 16:9 and Zoom to 'Full' or 'Wide', then adjust cable set-top box.(cable box settings (#2 above) will only affect DVD playback if DVD output runs through cable box)3) MOST LIKELY - DVD's can be recorded at various aspect ratios (length to height). Believe it or not, a lot of movies shown in theaters use a 2.35:1 ratio. If this is transferred to DVD, you will have black or grey bars above and below your screen, b/c a typical HDTV uses 16:9, or 1.77 ratio. Look on the box cover of the DVD. If it states '1.85:1' or just 1.85, then you should be good. If it states 2.35, expect the black bars. If you absolutely hate them, you can 'zoom' in with your TV control, but you'll lose some of the left-side and right side.
RCA 42" Screen Gone Black W/ TV Sound There.?
Test the TV with different inputs: over-the-air antenna, DVD player, game box, cable or satellite box, etc. Picture missing with only one input? You’ve partially solved it: bad source, jack, or cable. Picture missing on every input? First, unplug the TV and leave it alone for 15 minutes or so, then plug it back in and try it. Sometimes a cold restart will solve these problems, just like with your computer. No help? See if you can at least bring up the menu. If you can, check your owner's guide for the procedure to reset the TV to its factory default settings, then do it. If you can't do that, and if the TV is an LCD set (not LED), chances are its backlight has failed. Try this: dim the lights in the room, get very close to the TV while it's operating (you have sound on a channel), and shine a flashlight on the screen. If you can faintly see the picture, you've lost the set's backlight. The problem is either the backlight inverter, something else that controls or powers the backlight, or the fluorescent backlight itself. It's a job for a repair center, and if the set isn’t under warranty, you may find that the repair expense would be better invested in a new set with a new warranty and the latest features.

Any way to switch my RCA TV to video input without the remote?
Somewhere on the tv there should be buttons. Maybe under a flap on the front under the screen, on the side, somewhere. I've never seen a tv with no buttons. Keep looking and you may discover the hidden compartment. It may be one of those flaps you have to push in to get it to open.

How do I view video/movie files from a USB on a Sharp model TV?
I feel like if you plug it in to the TV (assuming it has a port) you should be able to choose it as a source.However, should this not work if you have a laptop or pc which has a HDMI port, you can plug it straight from there to your TV and choose the input and you can use it as normal. It makes interesting times for when you are using it to game, I played Pokemon on my downstairs 55″ 4K TV and honestly, best evening I’ve had gaming, played that for hours.Oh, just open the USB on your laptop/PC and you’ll be able to open and watch it like normal.
