I am looking to put up more than a few digital picture frames throughout the house. Although I am also looking for specific frames to use, I am asking here about what options there might be to achieve the following (as many as possible):
- Manage a library of pictures
- Tag pictures with categories or people's names
- Store list of available digital picture frames. For example, "Living Room North Wall", "Over the Mantle", "Stairwell", etc.
- Store sets of pictures to display. For example, "Everyday Pictures", "Holiday Pictures", "Family Pictures", etc.
The end goal is to have either static or cyclical sets of pictures that would display throughout the house, with specific sets for specific frames, that could be categorized/specified from a computer on the network.
Does this exist and is there a name for it so that I can more effectively search for it?
I built a digital picture frame from an old laptop that uses Google drive to sync the photo library, along with a script to send emails with pictures to Drive automatically. Installed the Drive app on the laptop, and ran a slideshow program on the Drive folder. Been working great for two years. I believe it would cover your requirements at no extra software cost.
