Built In Chromecast - Google Photos not working

by coderoo973

I decided to make use of the screensaver function of my Bravia TV and went to set up a google photos folder for it to use as screensaver images. It appears in the home app and I select it as the chosen folder to use for images. But it just doesn’t work, it forever chooses its own artwork photos.

Everything I find online tells me exactly how I’ve set it up, I’ve found briefly on a reddit post that a known bug of the built in android function just doesn’t work when choosing google photos as an option. Is this true? I just want some nice family photos to appear on the tv when it’s been left paused for a few minutes :/

Any advice?
