I am trying to have my Roku TV screensaver show my photos, but it only shows  demo photos, never my photos.

I have uploaded my photos to the web interface.   I see them there.   It says I have 22 Photo Streams.

  I go to Settings > Theme > Screensaver.  There I select Photo Streams as my screensaver.   Under Photo Streams in this location I select preview.  Then it shows demo photos, not the photos I have uploaded. 

I let the home screen time out so that the screen saver comes on.  Again, only the three demo photos, never my photos, display.

I am having this same issue and everything in your reply is not of any help. I have followed all of the steps several times, and photo streams still will not show me my pictures.

It started the first time I tried to use the feature.  

Don't understand the question about WEBP

Uploaded through web interface

Photos are .jpg.

I have done your steps numbered 1 though 6.

Same result.  My photos do not show.

As you can see, others have the same issue.
