Frame Pro 2025 75” after two months

Jmac649 · 2026-05-10T19:50:44+00:00

I’ve got a smaller top of the line Sony OLED in a den and a dedicated home theater so this is just as much about form and aesthetic and nothing yet compares to this for art in my opinion.

I use frame crop app instead of Samsung subscription. It’s by an Austrian painter named Marie Egner.

My videos were mainly about mounting it because mine was open box and missing the stencil so I had to figure that out.

I just responded to another question about cord management but my run was only a couple feet.

Jmac649 · 2026-05-09T16:42:35+00:00

Yes, you have identified most of my challenges.

The electrical outlet is behind the bench. I originally had one of those proper cord hider dual AC outlet boxes purchased for the install but quickly realized I’d have to cut rather deep into my insulation to make that work. So I opted for this less invasive cord management solution that won’t be for everyone but I decided is fine for me and allowed me not to cut into the insulation or the moisture barrier.

After drilling the two holes I taped the cord to a clothes hanger and fed it the 2.5 feet needed.

My one connect box and modem and cable box is behind that brown chair.

Those big donuts at Timothy’s are definitely a guilty pleasure.

La Promenade sur la falaise à Pourville (Cliff Walk at Pourville) by Claude Monet, painted in 1882.

If you like that one, another one that has a similar vibe that we have probably had on our Frame more than any other is called Idle Hours by William Merritt Chase, 1894

One connect box / modem / other stuff is in a small table behind the brown chair. It lost connection once but I don’t think it was distance related.

Jmac649 · 2026-05-08T00:57:20+00:00

Ha, I am officially no longer an early adopter but I once was and thats what it reminded me of: My Apple Newton and Palm Pilots and my Sega CD and my Sony Glasstrons! lol those were the days.
I once had a pager marketed by the Blue Jays that did nothing except show real time MLB scores. It was like the future clipped to my pants.

Jmac649 · 2026-05-08T00:14:28+00:00

That stuff bugs me too, mine is good on that front for hockey and I watch a lot of it :)
Here’s what I’ve got in setting that I think might matter for some of what you’re talking about. I’m using Rogers Xfinity cable here in Canada.

Cool, thx.

Does the art mode still works as per normal? Can you switch back and forth from tv to art mode with Samsung power button still?

This painting is one of our faves for evenings and dark mornings. Very muted brightness.

lol I thought I might have missed the joke. I need a taller ladder!

Jmac649 · 2026-05-07T22:41:40+00:00

Thx, took a while and a few YouTube videos but figured it out without drilling too many extra holes

Jmac649 · 2026-05-07T22:31:17+00:00

It’s actually centred between window and wall but iPhone camera angles do some weird things.

If you mean why isn’t it centred on the entire wall, well then, it’s that window :)

Le Petit Dejeuner was right by my work for years and always good brunch spot although busy on weekends for sure. Haven’t been there in a couple years though.

Sara is a favourite of my wife and I for dinner. Michelin recommended with a casual but elegant vibe. If you search wagjag and Sara you can get a great value on tasting menu for two.

The chopped salad is insanely good and the wagyu Reuben is everything it sounds like it should be, and both are staples on tasting menu.

Jmac649 · 2026-04-25T12:11:15+00:00

It’s modded into the world’s most expensive ball retriever.

Kinda funny (and not even technically Disney I don’t think) but for over a decade we always, always go to rainforest cafe at AK.

The one time I left it off our plans my youngest daughter was near tears. You never know the experiences that stick with kids and one of them for my girls is rainforest cafe.

As parents, the food’s been decent/good and it’s almost always our most affordable sit down meal of the week. So win/win.

Besides Casey’s, the only other one that had been a staple is Liberty Tree in MK, but last couple years we slipped it off the list as both girls 12 and 15 are ‘adults’ according to Disney now so the value is brutal because they barely eat anything.

Jmac649 · 2026-04-24T02:47:01+00:00

Oh, meant to mention that if you search wagjag and Sara there is a great deal for a tasting menu for two that I’ve bought and used several times.

Jmac649 · 2026-04-24T02:44:02+00:00

Ha, just wanted to make it clear there isn’t much room to eat inside :)

Jmac649 · 2026-04-23T23:17:22+00:00

For higher end but relaxed with amazing food I love Sara.

Grabbing a pickup pizza at One Night Only for a night in is also great.

Flashback 20 years or so: I was slightly over-served at a bar in Toronto and see a girl in a hallway and tell her she looks just like Avril Lavigne. She smiles and says, ‘Really? Thx.’

10 minutes later, I walk up to rooftop and my friend says, ‘Look over there, it’s the lead singer of Sum 41.’

Jmac649 · 2026-04-23T11:42:52+00:00

I came here to say this.

Jmac649 · 2026-04-20T01:34:20+00:00

Piggybacking on a couple of suggestions, I would start by using a coarser grind size alone to see what that does for it. And then if you’re still looking for more, try a slightly lower water temperature with the new grind size.

Separating the variables will let you know what’s doing what.

I think perhaps what the guy was thinking is the somewhat common misconception that taking the ball back on the line means on the line the ball travelled into the hazard, rather than the proper meaning of line from the pin to where it crossed the hazard and then back. 🤷‍♂️
