Be careful. It took three different so called otg USB c cables before I hit one that worked.

Thanks for your advice... 

Did you buy it online? 

If so, can you give a link or at least a name (of the one that work and if possible the ones to avoid)?

I have tried a usb mini connector with a usb-c adapter and I have tried a generic usb-c connector(sold as otg cable) and neither of these works.

I ordered this one:

I have been able to read an external USB memory stick with my X Compact using this cable - so OTG should work with it.

Thanks for the link Hardy66, I still haven't tried to buy one... Slightly_smiling_Face

It does support OTG , at least the US version. I had purchased ATSC tuner and needed adapter for the new type - C connector.

This adapter works great ! Not really sure this is what you are looking for but the link for the adapter is below also the tuner . I am in the US.
