So i just wanted to thank every one that helped me out here with the parts i got stuck on. and here is my completed mirror: It was a free tv so im not complaining but gonna prob get a new one and throw on the mirror film. 
its a 47in with ghostwood trim
So i tried the the default config/ zoom setting and dont seem to do anything i was wondering if some one could shed some light on the issue for me. ps im using a 47in tv and im trying to down scale the words as i made a Boo boo and cracked the edge of the screen
@Atheose thanks for the information im going out in a few to go pick it up the film as i figure its only 30$ worth a try worse case ill buy a sheet of glass and place thar on top or just bit the bullet and by the Acrylic mirror… ill update when i have it on
So i was looking into purchasing some 2 way Acrylic Mirror for my project but like i’m making it out of a 42in tv its turning out to be quite expensive for the mirror. so i stumbled upon window film for $30 at my local homedepot but can’t find anywhere on the web if anyone has tried using this on top of a tv and how it would be applied. if anyone has any info on this please let me know.

@broberg Thanks thats exactly what it was
Was wondering if you could look at mine @strawberry 3.141
