My monitor has an audio out, so I have connected a small Creative Labs speaker to the monitor in case I will need some basic sound.
Alternatively, you could swipe in from the left edge of your screen to access the same menu.

The Fire TV stick is cheap and provides all I need in a simple to use and manage package. The Amazon Firestick is a great way to stream content directly to your TV. Yes it means that your monitor needs to have an HDMI input, you may have success with a monitor with DVI input only (you will need an HDMI to DVI adapter as the Fire TV has only HDMI output) but I have not tested this configuration. This for sure looks better than displaying photos on a tablet with a much smaller screen.īuy an Amazon Fire TV stick and connect it to the monitor via HDMI. Since the picture resolution is so good I thought my photos will be best served with a 23” LCD screen which has full HD (1920x1080) resolution. My main motivation behind this project is to build a smart digital picture frame that can display all my pictures taken with my iPhone. Following my previous project to build a smart screen using my old iPad, I have decided to take this smart screen idea to the next level and use an old PC monitor (not so old as it has HDMI input) as a smart screen.
