I want something as simple, or simpler, as the digital photo frame... that can display my photos automatically on the TV without a load of button presses.
Turn on and the slideshow is running. So with the TV it would just be a case of selecting the av input and the slideshow is there.
Something like the Raspberry Pi that can be set to look in a folder for photos and display a nice slideshow automatically - with transitions and full screen. The Pi could be set to boot up and launch the slideshow automatically and could be powered on when I turn on the extension lead that the TV is connected to.
Is there a little device that already exists that does this?
The ps3 is ok, but you have to turn it on, select photos, launch the slideshow etc
The Apple TV Flickr feature from memory came up as a screensaver so this is a possible but may still be of many button presses.
