I am not sure where to put this, I created a basic slideshow for Synology photos that can be used by Fully Kiosk as a slideshow. I know quite a few of us that use a Synology NAS, and Fully Kiosk in our setups. I was tired of relying on transferring pictures to the SD Card on my wall mounted Fire tablet, and having to keep it updated as life happens. My phone automatically backups to Synology photos. There are apps that will connect and create a slideshow, but I wanted something that didn’t rely on quickconnect or an Internet connection so with help from AI, I was able to write a small node server to connect to my Synology and allow me to select albums as sources, set rotation timing, and shuffle. I use container manager to deploy it, there are some AI created docker installation instructions that are untested. I’m sharing the code for anyone who is interested. Below is a list of features
Features: All local no internet required (for viewing the slideshow)
Browser based configuration
Photos and Gif’s are used in slideshows
User selectable albums (Both Albums and Conditional Albums)
I couldn’t get Tags to work (See github for workaround, If anyone has a hint on this let me know and I’ll gladly add Tags back. )
User selectable Timing
User selectable Shuffle (if shuffle is unselected the slideshow restarts and shows the same photos each refresh)
