Flickr Groups not showing up #51

Closed monukoshy closed 2 years ago

monukoshy commented 2 years ago

I am unable to get flickr groups to show up on magic mirror using the MMM-Wallpaper module. Please check my code snippet.. not sure why it would not work.

{ module: "MMM-Wallpaper", position: "fullscreen_below", config: { // See "Configuration options" for more information. source: "flickr-group:113291043@N05", maximumEntries: 50, slideInterval: 60 * 1000 // Change slides every minute } },

Try setting flickrHighRes: false in your config. The urls for high res pictures used to be guessable from the low/medium res versions, but at some point, flickr changed that, and I haven't ever spent the time to figure out how to get the high res versions again.

Hi, thanks for stepping in. Yes it did work. But the images are low res. I think they are more like thumbnail images that are fully blurry and pixel torn on the monitor. Setting it back to true will turn off the flickr source.

Ok, it took a while, but I've integrated the flickr sdk to enable loading high-res photos from flickr. Can you try out the flickr-api branch and see if it works for you? The configuration is a bit different now (though I believe it's clearer and easier), so don't hesitate to reach out if you need help.
