A moving pet portrait for your digital photo frame
On a digital frame a living portrait looks like a painting that quietly breathes and blinks. It's especially lovely as a memorial.
Not every frame plays video, so check that yours supports MP4 files. A tablet in a stand works just as well.
For a beloved pet who has passed away, the Memorial mood gives very gentle movement. See pet memorial videos.
How to do it
- Create your living portrait. Higher resolutions (paid plans) look best on a larger screen.
- Download the video and copy it to your frame (USB, SD card or the frame's app).
- Turn on video playback and looping in the frame settings.
- Place it where you'll see it every day.
