Mirror larger than monitor
-
For what it’s worth, I have a mirror that’s larger than my monitor:
Monitor: 12.5x19.5"
Mirror: 14x22"It looks totally fine. There was some bleed at the edge of the monitor where you could see some light-glow, but I taped that down with electrical tape and now it’s perfect.
-
But how did You fix the monitor in the frame an on the mirror,. have some pictures. I fear the Monitor is to heavy for taping,. and if a take separators,. I fear the monitor falling through the mirror,… so how to really fix the monitor?
any help? -
I also have a mirror that is about twice the size of the monitor (60x40cm mirror, 19" 5:4 monitor) and in normal daylight it’s totally not visible. At night, however, when there is no other light in the room you can clearly see where the monitor ends
-
@dbahn25 I’d recommend putting black tape or something similar on the inside of the mirror where the monitor doesn’t show to combat this.
-
@Atheose thats exactly what i did. the problem is that the part where the monitor is is actually too bright, so it’d probably be better to put some white or light gray paper behind the parts that are not covered by monitor. But it’s not too bad and I don’t want to get the mirror off the wall and disassemble the whole thing again…
