Image viewer ala Windows Screensaver
-
Hi,
I have an Touch Panel PC installed in the wall of the living room since over 10 years.
This PC has only one thing to do - show all the pictures from my NAS (QNAP).
Now the SSD ist broken and the question is - can I do the same with Magic Mirror on Raspberry?
Perhaps with adanved features to show the O365 calendar and more.
But the image/picture playing is mandatory.
Who is doing something similar and can tell me what is the prefered app for this request.
Many thanks in advance.

@karlh I use MMM-ImagesPhotos to display pictures on mm from my Linux file server, effectively my NAS.
my Linux server shares using samba (windows file server), and I mount that as a folder on my SBC. (see /etc/fstab)
this module uses a fixed name for the source of the files, so I use a file system link tosp that to the mount. (see ln command)
I display the images as background
