icloud photos stop changing/ updating #42

Closed sluggg closed 2 years ago

sluggg commented 3 years ago

Thanks for your help yesterday getting icloud photos working. Unfortunately I face another issue. The photos work and load fine changing every min and then after a period of time the photos stop changing and remain stuck on a single image until I close and reopen the mirror software or force reload? Thanks again for all help

I switched my source to an iCloud album and let it run all day, it never stopped. Does it always stop on the same image? How large are your images? I know some people had similar issues a while back with large images from /r/earthporn, they were running out of memory, iirc.

I have the same issue, it stopped changing at the different image, then I will have to restart the magic mirror so it went back to normal. all the images where take with my iPhone, so they are probably around 5 or 6 MB?

Are you able to look at the console output from the browser, or the log output of the magicmirror server? Without being able to reproduce it locally, I can't tell what's going wrong.

geekqq commented 3 years ago

Sorry I am not a tech guy, can you be more specific on how to check the console output from the browser please? Thanks

kolbyjack commented 3 years ago

In chrome:

Press ctrl+shift+j to bring up the developer console
Switch to the Network tab so it will record requests
Wait for requests to fail
See if there are requests that are now failing to complete
Switch to the console tab to see if there are error messages

Finally I figured it out: I have to use npm start server to go into server mode, then I can use browser to see the mirror by going to localhost:8080 I am waiting for error to come up so I can send you the error message, thanks

It got stuck again this morning. There is no error message in the console though. See the attached screen: photo_2021-09-23_11-38-49 Snipaste_2021-09-23_11-41-52

If you switch to the network tab (click the >> to show it), does it show any failed requests?

geekqq commented 3 years ago

No I did not see any failed requests for wallpaper 12231

kolbyjack commented 3 years ago

Are there any errors in the terminal where you ran npm start server?

If DNS has stopped working, it would make sense that the wallpapers stop loading

geekqq commented 3 years ago

Any suggestions on how to solve the DNS problem?

kolbyjack commented 3 years ago

That's a system issue, unfortunately, I really don't have any suggestions

kolbyjack commented 2 years ago

Give latest a try, I think this should be fixed now

geekqq commented 2 years ago

It worked perfectly. Thanks
