Photo / Album changes won't update #94

Hi,

As a noob to RPi and MagicMirror I could very well be overlooking something, but when I add another photo to my Google Photo album, shouldn't that automatically display on my MagicMirror? Or do I have to add some more code to get this to work?

I'm seeing the same thing and am wondering about it as well. Appreciate any insights people can share. Thanks!

If anyone has any input to this, please comment. Thanks.

No, the module should be able to view the new photos without any trouble. Are you still having this issue? Do you have any conditions?

forjer commented 3 years ago

Yes, I am still having the issue. No conditions.

How many photos do you have? Can you share your configuration? It rescans the albums every 1 hour. How long have you let it run?

So I was apparently not understanding how it worked. Tried refresh interval, update interval and everything else I could think of except for patience. I didn't realize it was fixed at 60 minutes. Face-palm.

Thanks for the info. I set up a new Pi, installed MM and the Google Photos module, tested and it works as you said. Appreciate the replies.
