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)

@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).

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

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…
