I have a very large photo library (4000+, 6 selected albums, 9 total) and Photo Streams was working fine until a week ago, when the screensaver has since appeared to only be selecting photos from the amongst the most recent 40 in each album (coincidentally, the same number that appears in the preview scrolls on the app's main page).
I decided to deselect all but one album, featuring 300+ images, but the screensaver only displayed the most recent 100 photos in it. I can still access and view all photos and albums, and the problem is the same on both Rokus (4800X, 3811X)—before and after the most recent update.
Photoview AND Roku Stream can’t access google photo albums since 12/16/24?
IF you set Photoview to an album and then preview it, Roku does a restart reboot, THEN can only display all your google photos instead of specific albums.
IF you use Roku Stream (never used it before this issue) it can’t access Google photos. After clicking create, it has a disclaimer page, x out of this and you get a FAST (fraction of a second) error message stating can’t verify? Too fast to screen capture and send to Roku support!
Roku tech support is terrible, they disconnected my hour waiting chat and I don’t want to do that again. Since this a very recent BUG, I will give it time to fix. Using other screensavers till then.
Got here via google to see if anyone else was having the same problem. We have one photo stream with about 700 photos in it and we're only seeing those first forty or so. The problem started in mid-December for us and it's driving us crazy.
Photo stream doesn’t show all photos. I uninstalled app, restarted device muliple times. Still doesn’t display all photos. Just displays first 75. Do you have a way to fix this? Or is the product defective?
The problem has been going on for roughly a month now and likely isn't device-related. As far as I can tell, the screensaver, which loops 100 random photos, is displaying only the most recent 100 photos from within a single-album selection and 40 from each album within a multi-album selection.
Glad to see you here in the Roku Community!

I don't think there is anything there that anyone outside Roku could make use of. But if you're uncomfortable, reply to @RokuEmmanuel-D in a private message.
