Photo steaming not showing all photos

It appears that the photo streaming issue of all uploaded photos not appearing has gone on for a few years.  Does Roku have any plans to address?  Or is this an app that was a good idea but your software engineers either has other priorities or Roku decided this is a service they no longer feel they can provide.  Just let the public know.  It’s frustrating following all the suggested fixes with no real solution to the problem.

Re: Photo steaming not showing all photos

Hi @Nenely,

Welcome to the Roku Community!

Thanks for letting us know about this behavior with the Photo Stream not showing the entire set of photos that you've uploaded. Let's work on this together to fix it. Kindly follow and perform the troubleshooting steps below to resolve the issue:

1. Remove the Photo Stream channel by highlighting it and pressing the star (*) button.
2. Restart the Roku device from Settings > System > System Restart.
3. Install the channel again.

Also, each photo appears for 10 seconds, and the stream loops in random order during a slide show. You can see more here: How to use Photo Streams on your Roku streaming device

We hope this helps, and please keep us posted if the problem still persists.

Best regards,
John

This is ridiculous. You keep offering the same solution over and over and it DOES NOT WORK.

Still an annoying problem.  Get your programmer to change loop limitations in the code; should be easy.  Get on with it!

So Roku are you going to fix this issue?!?  I too have the same issue and it is very annoying. Again since so many of your clients are experiencing the same issue, then that would lend us all to believe that this is a Roku issue and we can’t resolve it on our end.
