How to Display Art on a Smart TV

Start with the feature your television already supports and use a correctly sized 4K image.

Choose the display route

A native gallery or ambient mode is usually simplest. USB photo playback and connected streaming-device screensavers are alternatives when the television does not store personal images.

Avoid distortion

Use 16:9 artwork and select fit or fill carefully. Never stretch an image to hide borders; choose a compatible crop instead.

Create a room-friendly result

Reduce brightness, use a warm color tone and set a sleep timer. The goal is a quiet display that belongs in the room, not a paused television image.
