Thanks @Sean
Will send in the config tonight in email.
I think Shared Album should work. Will try that once I find some time over weekend.
I have 3K pictures for now from one phone. More coming from other device (another account which I will try to put in shared album). -
@sean You mention 10,000 requests per day. Does the number of requests go up with the number of photos in the album? If the album had 1000 photos, would that be a problem? Or is that fine as long as the photos aren’t changing too often?

@bowlofred
If you have 1000 Photos in an album, and scanning per 10 minutes- on each scan; 20 API quota will be consumed. (max items driven per request are 50)
- for 24H running, 144 scans will be performed.
- Total consumption : 20 * 144 = 2880 APIs
- Around 3000 photos could be safely scanned with 10min scan cycle.
However after this calculation, I think I’d better to add a feature to suspend and resume for unused(or hidden) module status.

See above post.
I think your problem might be caused by number of photos. API request quota might be over the limits. It could not get new photos from server, so last picture is only you could have at the moment.
I’m guessing how to solve this kind of problem now. Hmmm…
Growing scanInterval up is not so safe, Because Life of temp url of photo is somewhat short, the url could be expired. Hmmmm… difficult. -
@Sean :
Got the scan calculation of how you got 2880 . thanks.Question:
Does the Scan calculation mean If scanned every 10 mins, a total of 2880 photos will be scanned in 24 hours?If refresh Interval is every 1 minute, then 60*24 = 144 photos out of the 2880 photos will be shown?
-
@krishnatnl
1api request could get 50 pics. 1000 pics need 20 api request. (1 scan)
1440scan(1min for 24h) needs 28800 api requests. Thats quota over. -
Hello,
I have installed this module and all options are working Except Fullscreen. When i setup to 100% nothing appears in Google Photos.
If i set resolution manually it works fine. what could be the reason.
Here is the setting.sort: "time", //'time', 'reverse', 'random' showWidth: "100%", // how large the photo will be shown as. (e.g;'100%' for fullscreen) showHeight: "100%", originalWidthPx: 1024, // original size of loaded image. (related with image quality) originalHeightPx: 768, // Bigger size gives you better quality, but can give you network burden. mode: "cover", // "cover" or "contain" (https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_background-size.asp)

@uzair82 There is no reason not to work. Where(position) did you put your module for fullscreen?

@sean
This is working fine now.
Below is my config snippet:refreshInterval: 1000*30, scanInterval: 1000*60*60, // 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: "cover", // "cover" or "contain" (https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_background-size.asp)
Question:
My monitor is in Landscape mode. My Landscape pictures displays fine (Fitting exactly in screen). But portraits display in full size cropping the pic mostly and in an expanded view. Only part of image is visible since it large.Is there a way to “Fit the picture into the screen” when it is Portrait just like Landscape? I tried other mode. It is too small and has borders. I want the pic to fit exactly in the screen.
My monitor is 22 inch, Full HD (1080P) if that helps. -
@krishnatnl
Fit the picture into the screen
has obvious meaning.
Portrait image in Landscape Area (and vice versa) Is something like real pictures in real photoframe, you cannot fit your portrait picture into the landscape frame without cutting(mode:cover
) or extra margin of both left&right sides(mode:contain
). The bigger difference of ratio makes the more uncomfortable looks.
Could be the 3rd option? Give me a suggestion.PS
I thought options available to consider :- stretch the width of portrait picture fully to fit to landscape area. It makes your person in portrait looks like a hobbit.
- cut the top and both moderately and also stretch horizontally not too much. Not displaying entire image and not covering whole area, but it will look nicer than current issue. The only problem is, where to cut and how much to expand is not be done automatically.
Is there any idea?
