Photo Stream Screensaver Channel Distorted photos

Jump to solution

Since the recent system update, all our photos uploaded to Photo Stream channel are squished and distorted. I restarted system twice. Deleted photo Screensaver, restarted system and reinstalled. Still same distortion.  We changed nothing. Same equipment. Same TV. Same photo stream uploaded to Roku. Looks like a cheap early 2000's digital photo frame and amatueirish.

Just noticed this too. Last update to my system was in April 24 (according to the device) and I just noticed this issue today. It runs quite a bit so I’m certain this wasn’t happening prior to day for me.

Roku Photo Streams pictures are suddenly a different size

Jump to solution

Today my Roku Photo Stream pictures are a different size and I can’t figure out how to fix it. I’ve never had this problem before today, it was working just fine. The pictures are much smaller and don’t fit the way they used to.

Yeah this is happening to me too. Started today. And it's not even every photo which is weird. I've also restarted and unplugged the roku multiple times. And when I go into the app, not of the photos are showing up distorted there, only when they're in Screensaver form

Same here. Already tried updating the software and restarting. Also tried changing to another screensaver and then back to Photo stream still no luck.
