How does Photostreams work?
When I go to Photo Streams I see canned photos I did not upload. When I read instructions on how to use Photo Streams i am directed to menu options that I don't see on my TV nor on my account.
I did follow the instructions to connect my Google photos, but then what? How do you PLAY the photos in your Google Photo albums on your Roku TV? Instructions say click on "Create Stream." I don't see "Create Stream" anywhere. Where is it?
I've read other similar threads but i see no answers, only complaints and questions. Does this forum actually provide answers to anything?
I first thought this was a 3rd party channel, but now I see it's something Roku offers. I just installed it, and when I started the channel it first offered me a video to watch that explains how to use it. Instead I clicked the Get started button, and it popped up a QR code for me to scan from my mobile device to upload photos. Since I don't have any such pictures to upload, I didn't go any further. But it does seem to provide instructions on use. I also found this web page that has more detailed instructions. It appears that much (all?) of the configuration is done with the Roku app on a phone or tablet or via a web page, not within the channel itself.
Right. But when you do all that stuff and follow the instructions, it doesn't work. So, this is not a solution.
