I loved the tones in this art for Fall, so I decided to buy it. It’s unlikely you’ll find art perfect to size, unless it’s already cropped for the frame.

Make sure you have plenty of space that can be cropped.

Choose Images with Plenty of Space for Cropping Then I save it to the Cloud and use my phone to bring that photo into the Smart Things app, where it can sync to the frame TV. It’s now uploaded to the TV and I can switch out the art easily while using the TV remote. Then I bring my art or image into that file size and crop or size it to fill the area. That is the perfect ratio for The Frame TV. I’ll create a new file for the size 3840×2160. I bring my image into Photoshop Elements. If you find a download that says it will print up to sizes 24 x 30 inches or something like 30 x 40, that would be a very reliable image to use for The Frame. At that point, you can crop or resize it to fit the frame TV perfectly. You’ll need to find art that is at least 3840 pixels wide and saved as a high-resolution image. Settings > ScreenSaver > Change wait time let you change the amount of time before a screensaver starts, doublecheck that it’s not disabled.

Then scroll down and open Local if you want to install custom screensavers on your Android TV from local storage. Go to Settings > ScreenSaver > Change Screensaver. After installing the app, open it and go to Settings. Now install Photo Gallery and Screensaver (Free, offers in-app purchases) app. If you are buying art and it says the digital download can only print up to an 8×10 or smaller, you are going to have pixel display problems. First of all, open the Play Store on your Android TV and search for screensaver. The other thing that is VERY important is image size. You can display a vertical photo, but it won’t fill up the screen and looks a little funny. The first thing to consider is photo orientation.īecause The Frame is a horizontal orientation, you need to buy or find horizontal art.

How to Size Art for the Samsung Frame TVīefore you go and buy or create art, there are some important things to consider to make it work with the Frame TV. At a little over $1000.00 for the purchase, I am very pleased with the quality. I also bought the 2019 model, as the 2020 version was significantly more expensive for few added improvements. It allowed for the perfect amount of white space around the frame for a lovely balance. You may adjust the Ambient mode settings using either the TV’s remote or the SmartThings app. The area above our mantel fit the 55″ Frame TV perfectly.

What size and model of the Frame did you buy? How much did it cost?
