Photo Stream not working with 1 photo

My photostream will not work when only 1 photo is uploaded (basically trying to copy samsunng frame tv). If I upload 2 of the same photo it will work, but then goes into slideshow mode which isnt ideal becasuse then the picture is going in and out when the slideshow "transitions". Is there a way to only have 1 photo and have it continuously as a screensaver?

Re: Photo Stream not working with 1 photo

Hi @rlassen28

Thank you for the post!

It's possible that the ROKU photostream requires at least two photos to be uploaded in order to function properly. One workaround you could try is to duplicate the same photo twice and upload them as two separate photos. This should allow the ROKU photostream to display the same photo continuously without transitioning to a slideshow mode.

If duplicating the photo doesn't work, you could try converting the photo to a video file format and uploading it to the ROKU photostream as a video. This should also allow the photo to display continuously without transitioning to a slideshow mode. However, keep in mind that converting the photo to a video may result in a loss of image quality.


Warm regards,
Lianna
