I video clip devono essere pi\u00f9 brevi di 15 secondi (rispetto a 2 minuti con le cornici Pix-Star di prezzo simile). Vale la pena notare che i video inclusi negli slideshow sulle cornici di Brookstone saranno riprodotti solo per il tempo delle impostazioni di transizione delle foto. Per esempio, se si imposta la cornice per cambiare foto ogni 10 secondi, i video saranno riprodotti solo per 10 secondi prima di cambiare.<br\/><br\/>La musica e l'impostazione audio non sono grandiose sul telaio Brookstone. \u00c8 lento da configurare e difficile da usare - specialmente per chiunque non sia molto esperto di tecnologia. Se la riproduzione video e audio \u00e8 importante per te, ti suggeriamo di guardare il telaio Pix-Star. Costa quasi lo stesso e puoi riprodurre video clip di 2 minuti.<br\/><br\/>Con le cornici digitali Pix-Star, i video possono essere inclusi negli slideshow, i file audio e la radio possono essere riprodotti sopra gli slideshow, e si possono anche collegare altoparlanti\/cuffie\/auricolari esterni per aumentare l'immersione. I video possono anche essere impostati per essere riprodotti in modalit\u00e0 silenziosa per impostazione predefinita quando sono inclusi negli slideshow. I video possono essere inviati tramite app mobile o scheda USB\/SD, mentre i file audio possono essere inviati solo tramite scheda USB\/SD (si noti che i messaggi audio possono essere inviati anche tramite l'app mobile Pix-Star Snap).<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1643795019965\"><h2 class=\"schema-faq-question\">Come configurare a distanza la cornice digitale Brookstone?<\/h2> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Le cornici digitali Brookstone non possono essere configurate o gestite a distanza. Questo \u00e8 comune da trovare nella fascia media del mercato. La funzionalit\u00e0 di controllo remoto si riferisce alla capacit\u00e0 di utilizzare l'interfaccia web supportata o l'app mobile per regolare, gestire e controllare le tue cornici da qualsiasi parte del mondo.<br\/><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.pix-star.com\/\">Cornici digitali di Pix-Star<\/a> sono una scelta eccellente se vuoi capacit\u00e0 di configurazione a distanza. \u00c8 possibile gestire e controllare fino a 25 cornici Pix-Star a distanza tramite l'interfaccia web. Questo pu\u00f2 essere fatto da qualsiasi luogo e in qualsiasi momento, purch\u00e9 la cornice desiderata sia online. Puoi regolare le loro impostazioni, avviare e gestire gli slideshow, gestire il cloud e l'archiviazione locale, collegare nuovi album web e molto altro.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1643795020454\"><h2 class=\"schema-faq-question\">La cornice digitale di Brookstone pu\u00f2 funzionare offline?<\/h2> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">La cornice digitale Brookstone pu\u00f2 lavorare offline grazie alla sua memoria interna. Foto e video salvati qui possono essere visualizzati offline in slideshow. Questo \u00e8 molto comune in questa fascia di prezzo. Una volta che la memoria interna si \u00e8 riempita, si pu\u00f2 iniziare a cancellare le foto per fare spazio a quelle nuove, oppure si pu\u00f2 collegare una scheda USB\/SD per espandere la memoria.<br\/><br\/>Vale la pena prestare attenzione a una lamentela ricorrente che la cornice digitale Brookstone riceve per quanto riguarda i servizi cloud che scadono dopo 1 o 2 anni. Quando questo accade, non sarete in grado di utilizzare l'app mobile della cornice, il Wi-Fi o i servizi cloud. Per ora, non c'\u00e8 una soluzione per questo problema, anche se il supporto clienti \u00e8 consapevole.<br\/><br\/>Questi - tra gli altri - problemi di controllo della qualit\u00e0 sono uno dei motivi principali per cui suggeriamo di evitare questi telai di fascia media. I telai Pix-Star hanno lo stesso prezzo, ma sono molto pi\u00f9 affidabili, versatili e offrono un rapporto qualit\u00e0-prezzo molto migliore. Molti <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pix-star.com\/blog\/it\/cornici-digitali\/foto-frame-digitale-di-fascia-media\/\">telai di fascia media<\/a> come il Brookstone lottano per trovare un posto sul mercato perch\u00e9 il loro prezzo non \u00e8 lontano dalla gamma premium, ma i loro set di funzioni e le prestazioni reali hanno una lunga strada da percorrere per competere efficacemente.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1643795021011\"><h2 class=\"schema-faq-question\">Come sono le cornici digitali Brookstone rispetto alla Pix-Star?<\/h2> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Sia la cornice digitale Brookstone che quella da 10 pollici di Pix-Star hanno lo stesso prezzo. Detto questo, le cornici di Pix-Star sono pi\u00f9 versatili, ricche di funzioni e affidabili a lungo termine. Le cornici Pix-Star offrono archiviazione cloud gratuita per tutta la vita, riproduzione video e audio, un'interfaccia web e una migliore app mobile, un rapporto di aspetto 4:3, slideshow altamente personalizzabili, nessun display touch e un supporto pi\u00f9 completo per gli album web.<br\/><br\/>I telai Pix-Star possono essere gestiti e controllati da qualsiasi luogo in gruppi di controllo multi-frame (fino a 25 telai collegati) da un singolo account utente. Hai quasi lo stesso livello di controllo sulla cornice che avresti usando di persona. Il supporto video e audio di Pix-Star \u00e8 pi\u00f9 capace di quello di Brookstone (2 minuti contro i 15 secondi di Brookstone).<br\/><br\/>Pix-Star inoltre non soffre dello stesso problema di Brookstone. Per esempio, le cornici di Brookstone hanno ricevuto diversi reclami di \"rottura\" per cui il servizio cloud della cornice \"scade\" e smette di funzionare. Il servizio clienti dice che sono consapevoli ma che non c'\u00e8 una soluzione. Questo \u00e8 successo recentemente nel gennaio 2022 ed \u00e8 un problema in corso. Le cornici Pix-Star offrono gratuitamente per tutta la vita l'archiviazione su cloud e le relative caratteristiche - e non hanno ricevuto lamentele di questo tipo.<br\/><br\/>Il rapporto d'aspetto 4:3 di Pix-Star \u00e8 molto meglio in quanto corrisponde perfettamente al rapporto d'aspetto della maggior parte degli smartphone e delle fotocamere quando si scattano le foto. La cornice di Brookstone ha spesso foto inscatolate da barre nere o ritagliate per adattarsi allo schermo intero. Pix-Star non soffre di questo problema, quindi offre slideshow pi\u00f9 coinvolgenti e senza sforzo - e una migliore esperienza visiva complessiva.<br\/><br\/>Tutto sommato, mentre queste montature hanno quasi lo stesso prezzo, Pix-Star offre un rapporto qualit\u00e0\/prezzo molto migliore. Si ottiene una maggiore affidabilit\u00e0, una migliore durata e un set di funzioni molto pi\u00f9 robusto. I telai Pix-Star sono pi\u00f9 adatti al <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pix-star.com\/blog\/it\/case-intelligenti\/modern-digital-photo-frames\/\">casa moderna e famiglia<\/a> grazie al loro design intuitivo e intelligente e al set di funzioni. Sono disponibili sia come cornice digitale da 10 pollici che come cornice digitale pi\u00f9 grande da 15 pollici.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1643795021507\"><h2 class=\"schema-faq-question\">La cornice digitale Brookstone usa un touchscreen?<\/h2> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Le cornici digitali Brookstone utilizzano un'interfaccia touchscreen - qualcosa che raccomandiamo di evitare. Anche se questo potrebbe sembrare un consiglio superato, dato che la maggior parte dei dispositivi intelligenti utilizzano display touch, le cornici digitali sono un'eccezione. I pannelli touchscreen sono molto pi\u00f9 costosi per qualsiasi cornice pi\u00f9 grande di 8 pollici. Questo spiega perch\u00e9 la cornice Brookstone ha lo stesso prezzo delle cornici Pix-Star, ma ha le caratteristiche di una cornice di fascia media; mentre le cornici Pix-Star (non touch) sono tra le pi\u00f9 robuste sul mercato.<br\/><br\/>Le cornici digitali raramente fanno bene i loro touchscreen. Non hanno una quantit\u00e0 incredibile di potenza di elaborazione. I touchscreen sono spesso laggosi e poco reattivi. Sono anche soggetti a graffi e impronte, lasciandoti costantemente a pulire il display per evitare di rovinare l'esperienza visiva. I touchscreen sono probabilmente la parte meno durevole di queste cornici, con molti <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pix-star.com\/blog\/it\/buying-guides\/touch-screen-digital-photo-frames\/\">cornici digitali touch screen<\/a> che soffrono di recensioni e valutazioni di scarsa durata.<br\/><br\/>La maggior parte delle cornici digitali di qualit\u00e0 superiore non usano touchscreen. Invece, le cornici top come la Pix-Star offrono sia un telecomando portatile che una funzione di configurazione remota che ti permette di gestire la tua cornice da qualsiasi parte del mondo. Per esempio, puoi regolare le impostazioni della cornice Pix-Star, avviare e gestire presentazioni, importare foto dai social media e dai siti di condivisione foto, aggiornare il firmware, gestire l'archiviazione locale e su cloud e molto altro. Questo rende il touchscreen superfluo e salta tutte le seccature legate alla necessit\u00e0 di essere direttamente davanti alla tua cornice per fare qualsiasi modifica.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quanto \u00e8 buona la cornice digitale Brookstone?
