Formats (10.5)

The LG 37LH55 is a full 1080p television, with a resolution of 1920 x 1080. This means it can natively handle the highest quality HD content available, typically only from Blu-ray discs. It can also handle lower quality content, including 1080i, 720p and 480i/p. The television also supports film-like content at 24 frames per second, both natively and via the 3:2 pulldown process. There is also support for the xvYCC color gamut, which allows the television to display a wider gamut of colors if the content supports it.

Photo Playback (3.5)

The LG 37LH55 supports viewing photos form a connected USB device. The photo playback interface is a bit cluttered, with a file browser view and a full-screen view. There is no support for a standard slideshow, so you'll need to move between photos using the remote. You can have music from the USB drive playing in the background, however.

The photo playback interface is not very polished.

Music & Video Playback (2.5)

The LG 37LH55 can play back Mp3 music files from a connected USB device. The interface is similar to that for photos, with a file browser view allowing you to select the folder where you music files are located. There is support for embedded album art, but not for playlists. When music is playing you get a player on-screen that moves around to keep burn-in from occuring. There is no support for playing back video files from a USB device.
