@Sean Sorry to keep kicking a dead horse, but if the API gives access to the creationTime, then can one create a short script to to show a particular photo for a particular date? Like, when in the month of December, only show me photos with a time stamp of 12/**/****.
Here is what I am getting at; I can edit the time stamp on each photo to reorganize in google photos. However, if there is a power glitch, and my Rpi resets, then the photos will start over at the beginning of the photo album. Normally this wouldn’t be a big deal if I were to use my MM as just a photo frame. However I suspect that I’m like most people, and am displaying our family calendar as well (kudos for the CalendarExt BTW). Having the photos coincide with the what time of the year it is would be very beneficial. For instance I wouldn’t want snow scenes to be displayed in the middle of July (unless I am in Australia, :-P ). So far there doesn’t seem to be a module like that.

Hello,
The module has been working great , however , i am running into a situation now where it constantly request google authentication. I can leave and come back and there are 50 chromium tabs opened trying to authenticate to google , and it also covers other modules.
Any idea how to fix this ?
Regards!

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) -
@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 throughTelegram(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.
