Use of Samsung „The Frame“ with MM
-
Hi,
did anyone use Samsungs The Frame together with MM?
From what I had read the TV sounds like a good solution for my dashboard screen idea. My MM will be 80% of the time show all my pictures and 20% of the time weather, news and calendar.
It will not have a mirror and sit in the living room.
Happy to get any feedback from you.

Samsung’s tizen os has sonehow outdated chromium, so some of modern 3rd party modules might not work, but I think default modules ok. -
@MajorC
I have a Samsung the Frame, but you can only display photos in the power-saving Art Mode and not a browser. This is also not possible in Ambient Mode. -
@Jalibu not running ON/IN the TV, but thru a separate HDMI port. you should be able to do anything u want
HDMI signal is an HDMI signal. TV doesn’t know what is being displayed

@sdetweil
haha, of course it works with HDMI ;-)But I think this question is about Samsung The Frame specific features and not TVs in general 🙃
-
@Jalibu i don’t think that was what he was asking… but maybe he will chime in…
I have a precursor to the frame, 82in samsung with the external hdmi ports… MM works fine over hdmi
(google ChromeCast does the same thing) -
My idea was to run MM via HDMI and a Raspberry when I am in the room.
If no one is in front of the frame, it should switch to “frame mode” and display a picture.
But do not know if it works that way. Or if I just take a normal monitor and have a frame built.

that is a good question…
looks like not
https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/QLED-and-The-Frame/Feature-Request-CEC-Anynet-options-to-prevent-Frame-switching/td-p/1287539looks like if u turn it off with CEC then its ‘off’, not frame mode

Following the comments in your link, Samsung has made it possible by a firmware update.
Maybe @Jalibu can double-check the behavior.

I did not find this option as a setting on my Frame (latest Firmware). Unfortunately, I also can‘t test this because I don’t have a Anynet device -
It looks like there are different firmware features. Depending on the hardware.
Great thx Samsung. Now I have to find out when this option is available. I’m not really willing to spend 500€ for a picture frame. Then I can rather buy a monitor and have a nice wooden frame built by a carpenter.
