      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…

        @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.
          }

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

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

            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.

              @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:

                  and here’s my config… (the size is just for testing)

                  {
                  module: “MMM-GooglePhotos”,
                  position: “top_left”,

                  	}
                  	},	
                  

                  Hope you will be able to help me out…

                      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?

                        Try changing scaninterval and refreshinterval in the config
