This add-on is built on the awesome work of https://github.com/ow/samsung-frame-art and https://github.com/gijsvdhoven/homeassistant-addons. It adds the ability to push images from different sources to your Samsung Frame TV, currently supported are Google Art and Culture, Bing Wallpapers and Local Media folder.
By starting the add-on it will randomly pick an image based on your configuration and put it on your frame; after the image is placed the add-on will automatically stop again. This for instance can be triggered via an automation to run on a daily basis. Please find an example below.
By default the addon configuration has "Google Art" mode enabled which instead of taking images from the "media" folder takes random images from the Google Arts and Culture site and pushes it to the Samsung Frame TV.
The addon now also supports "Bing Wallpapers" mode, which allows you to display random high-quality wallpapers from Bing on your Samsung Frame TV.
Looks for images in the /media/frame folder and randomly pushes an image to your Samsung Frame TV
Install this addon by adding the repository:
- IP Address: Set the IP address of your Samsung The Frame TV.
- Google Art: Enable to use random images from Google Arts and Culture.
- Bing Wallpapers: Enable to use random high-quality wallpapers from Bing.
- High Res: (For Google Art only) Enable to get high-resolution images using dezoomify.
When you start the addon for the first time it creates a specific directory in Media called "frame" where you can place your custom images.
Please note you must upload pictures with a lower-case extension and only .png and .jpg are supported.
Here's an example of how to set up an automation to change the image daily at 23:00:

trigger:
- platform: time
at: "23:00:00"
condition: []
action:
- service: hassio.addon_start
data:
addon: local_hass-frametv-artchanger
You can customize this automation based on your preferences and the configuration options you've chosen in the addon.
