FYI

Uploaded more pictures today.  Got out of Screen Saver to VIEW ALL pictures in that stream.

When I went back to Screen Saver, new pictures were showing up.

Do I have to STOP and get out of Screen Saver and occasionally manually look at pictures then restart to make it "shuffle?"

You are not addressing my question.

Since the Screen Saver appears to reshow the same 20 or 30 photos out of the 200 that I have uploaded, how do I "reshuffle" so it shows a DIFFERENT 20 or 30 out of the 200??

Hi @Grandma78633,

Thank you for posting here in the Roku Community!
We will be more than happy to assist you further. Please be advised that you may try to restart your Roku device or TV and see if that will reshuffle the photo.

In addition, the stream loops in a random order, and each photo displays for 10 seconds throughout a slideshow.

We hope this helps.

Kind regards,

John

Unplugged and replugged Roku and it did reshuffle, but do I have to do that every day or so to get Roku to change the order for the  screen saver??

Can someone explain the "shuffle" process??

I have over 400 photos loaded, yet I SEEM to see mostly the same ones over and over on the Screen Saver.  How can I force it to be RANDOM?

Also, I actually have 115 loaded in one stream.  Do I need to delete 15 and load them to a different stream??

Hi @Grandma78633,

Thanks for the quick reply!

We're glad to assist you with your inquiry. For shuffle and loop settings, once you've opened an image and it's in the full-screen slideshow, please try to push the * button on the Roku remote and see if it will bring up slideshow options where you can adjust loop or random order.

We hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Eunice
