jfh Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I am thinking about replacing a Samsung C9000 TV (vey thin LED TV circa 2010) that is mounted on a wall with a Samsung Frame TV so that it looks more like an actual picture. I like the idea of At Mode. For those that have or have installed a Frame TV - what are your impressions of it, art mode and C4 integration?

sonic30101 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Great idea, art mode is cool, IP Control works as long as you have the right driver and hard-wired is definitely ideal. Overall picture quality is not so good though probably due to the more matte finish on the LCD panel to make it look like artwork Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any “real” TV/movie watching would be done in other rooms. is the PQ annoying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonic30101 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 That should be fine, I personally wouldn't want one in a primary video location it will get a lot of use but the guest bedroom is a good fit. It doesn't look bad it's just not as sharp due to the matte finish and it's a mid-tier LCD panel in their lineup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmonty2 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 With the new ip driver it works well, expect for the art mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking about putting one in the master bedroom and want to be able to shut off the art mode at certain hour or maybe depending on the motion in the room. No way to shut off the art mode?

knowitall Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 You can set the tv to automatically turn off after X time i despise the one connect box and that damn fiber cable. Awesome concept and execution otherwise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LollerAgent Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 The real downfall is the size of that stupid box that you have to hide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Control-IT Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Yea make sure you can hide the enormous box. Dumbest idea I’ve ever seen. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ejn1 Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 I like the box for the record Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonic30101 Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Almost half a VCR lmao. It is 21 inches wide I think. So they arent the most fun thing to install. We usually do a versa box that you have to cut up or a 24" low volt can if it is done before sheetrock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danvan Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Hi. I've installed a coupe of Samsung 55" Frame TVs (model QE55LS03TAUXXU) but cannot find a driver which can start and stop Art Mode. I've found a few drivers which has Art mode as an action, but none seem to be able to activate Art mode simply. I've seen that if you use the command "On power off mode to Art Mode (without app)" to ON, then you can then use the "power off" command and then the TV will indeed go to art mode. However then if you want to be able to go away from Art mode, you have to do the command "On power off mode to Art Mode (without app)" to OFF, then go power off, and start again from having the TV off. This means to go from Art mode to watching an HDMI source, you have to turn the TV off, wait a while then restart the TV and then go HDMI. This all takes a while, and sometimes the commands don't all go through. If anyone has experience of Frame TVs and knows which is the best driver to use and how just to simply turn Art mode on and off, I'd be really very grateful! Thanks.

msgreenf Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 There is an art mode mini driver that must be installed. RyanE 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danvan Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Yes thanks for that msgreenf; I had already installed that and linked it to the relevant app switcher on the C4 tv driver. I'm obviously doing something wrong somewhere as the "Being Art Mode" command just doesn't do anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I have used this a few times without issues so I'm not really 100% sure why there are issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danvan Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 If you have the time, please could you let me know which driver you actually use and then I'll use your exact one and try again. Much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Pretty sure it's just called Art Mode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
