Hi , Sorry not exactly sure how to get the logs.

If you are requested to auth your project on each time module running, your authentification was missing something or failed.
Try re auth again. (https://github.com/eouia/MMM-GooglePhotos#get-auth-and-albumid)

xundre

@Sean I do but then it comes back up again in x number of days. I go through the auth process and it works again, but then starts popping up windows to auth after sometime.

It used to work consistently without having to reauth , not quite sure what changed.

Very weird. If possible, plz contact me tomorrow through Telegram (my id is @eouia) I’m convenient when normal weekdays 10am ~ 17pm in Central European Timezone. We can see what’s happening on realtime.

If I have an album with a very large number of photos does it scan all of them? I switched to a small album and it loads nice and fast…but the large one never seems to get a photo. Is this a one time scan (for each time it starts up). Or will it always be super slow.

Google Photos auto adds photos to albums based on who is in them, so its a shame to not be able to use one of these albums.

@mcneilp If i let it run long enough it loads an image…but sometimes it goes blank for a while. I assume this is because its processing photos. Too bad it can’t just load a few at a time and run fast.

Show me your config. And Google Photos has its API request limit for usage.

Sean,
It seems you make my favorite modules. I’m trying to get the GooglePhotos to work and it does if I leave it long enough. On startup though nothing shows (makes it real hard to configure the appearance). I’m seeing this in the log. Is the album I chose too big? I’m using the config you posted for fullscreen (except I changed to mode: hybrid).

@gonzonia
well, the error log is saying just network problem. However I’m not in front of machine at this moment, but i’ll check this tomorrow

gonzonia

Thanks. Seems to be working now. Like I said, it starts out that way and then eventually loads fine. The album has about 900 photos I’m showing randomly. Trying to decide if I want them fullscreen or not…

gonzonia

@Sean It’s weird. I had it working. I went to adjust the settings (sizing didn’t look good) and then it stopped. Getting the network error consistently.

This is my latest config. I’ve tried various configurations of showWidth/showHeight and originalWidthPx/originalHeightPx

{
  module: "MMM-GooglePhotos",
  position: "top_left",
  config: {
    albumId: ["XXX"], // your album id(s) from result of 
   refreshInterval: 1000*60,  
    scanInterval: 1000*60*10, // too many scans might cause API quota limit also.
    //note(2018-07-29). It is some weird. API documents said temporal image url would live for 1 hour, but it might be broken shorter. So, per 10 min scanning could prevent dead url.
    sort: "random", //'time', 'reverse', 'random'
    showWidth: "800", // how large the photo will be shown as. (e.g;'100%' for fullscreen)
    showHeight: "600",
    originalWidthPx: 1920, // original size of loaded image. (related with image quality)
    originalHeightPx: 1080, // Bigger size gives you better quality, but can give you network burden.
    mode: "hybrid", // "cover" or "contain" (https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_background-size.asp)
    //ADDED. "hybrid" : if you set as "hybrid" it will change "cover" and "contain" automatically by aspect ratio.
  }

@gonzonia
There is nothing related to your network issue on this module. (At least, I think so)
I carefully guess these things;

WLAN sleeping feature might be activated in your RPI.
Your other module or other background process would make this.

gonzonia

@Sean
This module is the only one not working. though and you can see in the error I posted earlier it directly references the “photoslibrary.googleapis.com” which is why I suspected this module.

Currently I’m not running over wifi so it’s not that it’s sleeping.

I’ll keep trying things and see if I can find something with some consistency. Thanks for checking.

gonzonia

@Sean I’m starting to think the network error is irrelevant.
I am seeing the error sometimes not related to googleapis.com. In those cases the CalendarExt2 data isn’t fully loaded, I refresh and all seems good.

The config below seems to work.

{
  module: "MMM-GooglePhotos",
  position: "fullscreen_below",
  config: {
    albumId: ["AD8YTEgKjrQhxAA_30358v4J7I7CXoa1_QIgcebrp1qLcFUvsIU5Hql3wPIvUDesZ72DYwbEhxSz"], // your album id(s) from result of `auth_and_test.js`
   refreshInterval: 1000*60,  
    scanInterval: 1000*60*10, // too many scans might cause API quota limit also.
    //note(2018-07-29). It is some weird. API documents said temporal image url would live for 1 hour, but it might be broken shorter. So, per 10 min scanning could prevent dead url.
    sort: "random", //'time', 'reverse', 'random'
    showWidth: "100%", // how large the photo will be shown as. (e.g;'100%' for fullscreen)
    showHeight: "100%",
    originalWidthPx: 1920, // original size of loaded image. (related with image quality)
    originalHeightPx: 1080, // Bigger size gives you better quality, but can give you network burden.
    mode: "hybrid", // "cover" or "contain" (https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_background-size.asp)
    //ADDED. "hybrid" : if you set as "hybrid" it will change "cover" and "contain" automatically by aspect ratio.
  }
  	},

Change to

 position: "top_left",
showWidth: "800",
showHeight: "600",
originalWidthPx: 800,
originalHeightPx: 600,

and it doesn’t

With your config (but change albumId - I cannot use your albumId), I can display.

Here is mine.

{
  module: "MMM-GooglePhotos",
  position: "top_left",
  config: {
    refreshInterval: 1000*60,
    scanInterval: 1000*60*10, 
    sort: "random", 
    showWidth: "800px", 
    showHeight: "600px",
    originalWidthPx: 800, 
    originalHeightPx: 600,
    mode: "hybrid", 
    albumId: ["AJQR3DjzfO6BkH5eSY1e6Dm3m49QVOmpmXgPy6BOecEwg-f_82H_UJ1v-dvzVIjuezDmb_snettC"],
  }

Hi,

For some reason noting is showing on the MagicMirror… I’ve pass the Auth test but still nothing is happening…
Here’s the test results:

What log says?

guythnick

I would have thought this had been asked, but I could not find it in this thread:

Is there any way to set the length of time (speed) the pictures will show for? I am using basically default settings in an album with 217 pictures, and the rate they display is very quick. Sometimes they will pop up several times a second, and then slow back down to around 10 seconds per picture. I would rather set it for 30 or even 60 seconds before it rotates. Is this possible?

@guythnick
Try changing scaninterval and refreshinterval in the config
