It you get a nice Tv a remote may helpful and if it’s used as photo frame roll over magic mirror and it may have two HDMI socket it can be used a second screen for pc and its cheaper. Most monitors only have one Hdmi in low cost range . If their used as mirror in my opinion if you can get laptop screen with a drive board its best as its so slim . Monitors are slimmer then tv’s but can cost more ,pictures quietly is not an issue a you most seeing the mirror.
Deciding what best depends on your pocket if you go with glass it’s much better than film the cost between acylic or glass is about 25 pound more if you look around . It’s more about weight it can get very heavy.

Best thing to is it up a Tv you have and get it all working with add-on modules on the same size your going to use
Before deciding.

Hope my opinion has been helpful

thank you

Hi do you know if a touch screen add rectangle bezel form Ali express would work under glass or over the glass?
as hopping to add one at later date using mirror glass if put it under the glass would it still work ?

I have a copy of my config before adding page I’ve replaced it with that one so I can add the pages to that one if its working always make a copy before add any new modules.

thank again

Thanks what are page position can i use as see that s missing and could not see
any on the list use could give me a list of position I can use in pages like top-left
would this be the correct way to write it in the position space? I’ve seen it on
other modules but can remember all the position .
