@kapsolas set the mode to cover or contain. cover will be fit your entire region as large as possible but cropped, contain will show the entire image but has some black tape around top and bottom or left and right by the ratio of photo width/height like movie film.

Hello i use node auth_and_test.js but i dont have any album ID in terminal only info : auth_and_test started.
What to do to get album ID ??

If you don’t see any response, it may be because an error is being returned by Google. Errors in the script are suppressed now.

If you are familiar with updating the code, you can add a console.log(body) message to see the error.

@kivlow At your first execution, have you countered allowance process?

Hi Sean,

Great work.

Just set this up, all went ok to the point where the photo’s don’t display.
I have a section on the MM screen cleared where the default 800x600 image would be displayed, but it is a black screen. I have the following error on the console after starting MM.sh appearing every refresh interval.
“There is no scanned photo currently.”
The album has several photo’s within it, The album name appeared next to the Album ID, I’ve copied the Album ID only into my config.

Any pointers would be great.

Thanks again!

@richfreeman
DOH
Remove the <>
Change “<>” to simply “Album ID”
No <> needed.
Photo’s appeared !
Thanks.

@kivlow
I suspect you have executed node auth_and_test.js in shell terminal on your PC via SSH. right?
If you run that commands on your RPI directly, it should try to open a browser for authenticating process.

@sean
i power on RPI with raspbian then open from upper taskbar terminal and wrote node auth_and_test.js
how to wrote it directly ??
