Forums - General - Wall mount picture frame double as media player, create yourself

Picture frames are rather expensive when you go up the resolution and screen size.

So, here's an idea on making your down 19'' picture frame estimate cost... $150.

Buy an lcd monitor, one that you can remove the leg so you can mount it on the wall yourself. Cost ~$100

Buy a media player with vga out, cost ~$50. The player is small enough to be hidden behind the monitor.

Now, you have a "photo frame" that plays video, music, with primary function as picture frame.

Hmmm, yeah, I'll build it at some point. Good idea?
