Hi all!

I am looking for aWIFI Digital Photo Frame which is not dependent on a cloud storage that I don’t know and don’t trust. So the device would either have lots of internal storage (at least 64GB)or storage can be added via SD cards or USB Sticks.

Ideally there would be an app that I can use to upload pictures to the device in my home WIFI but SFTP/Samba would also be ok.

Any recommendations?

edit: up to 200 EUR budget edit: at least 10 inch in size

Thanks a lot!

    I’m doing this with Immich as the photo storage software, MagicMirror OS on a raspberry pi, and the MMM-ImmichSlideShow module to show the pictures on an old computer monitor.

    If you’re new to self hosting stuff, this will be sort of difficult to get set up. If you’re comfortable with the command line, config files, docker, etc, then it’s worth the effort.

      I already have a MagicMirror and Immich set up, and I’m debating trying to fix the tablet I have, or trying to get a new one like the chap who started this thread.

      However, I had nearly literally the same plan in mind for it. I have a friend who does woodworking who is open to making a frame for it once I’m done. Throw MagicMirror and MMM-ImmichSlideShow on there and it’s a digital picture frame.

      EDIT: Also, if the tablet is too underpowered (like my old one) you can always run MagicMirror on a different machine/vm and just run Electron to load the page from that machine remotely, reducing the overall load on the tablet itself. If I fix my old tablet, this will have to be the solution because it’s too underpowered for MM on it’s own.
