Pi Picture Frame

A picture frame script primarily developed for Raspberry Pi but can also run under Linux. (Some extra work is needed to run under Windows.)

It uses pi3d to render the pictures. The actual OpenGL code is from pi3d_demos.

Installation

sudo apt-get install libatlas-base-dev  # Need for numpy
sudo pip3 install pipictureframe

Usage

Run

pi-picture-frame -h

to get a comprehensive list of options.
