Feature Request: Google Photos Screensaver Support

Open OnceUponALoop opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

@cguZZman - thanks you for creating this great Kodi plugin :)

I would like to suggest a feature that allows using the Google Photos files for screensaver functionality.

Most of the screensaver plugins in Kodi expect a local source with photos to use a screensaver, this is not possible with Google Photos in a Fire TV since there's no google play services to authenticate.

If all else fails I can always write a small screensaver plugin that just calls the Kodi action to start the googledrive plugin with the desired photos path, but perhaps there's a better way to do this here.

I will look into it myself at some point but I figured I'd throw it out there until I get some time 👍

Thanks again, and best regards.

Could relate to #162, the response there was limited to music files but didn't address functionality in Google Photos.
