Ambient Mode is only displaying a limited number of my Google Photo Albums as options on Google TV

My ambient mode is only displaying a limited number of my Google Photos Albums as options for the ambient mode screen saver. I have 150 different albums in Google Photos. However, when I go into Ambient Mode to select what albums I would like to choose for the ambient mode screensaver, it only gives me the option of 55 of my albums for my Google TV from TCL. I also have a chromecast set up on a different TV and ambient mode is only allowing me to choose from 83 of my 150 albums. Is there something I can do to be able to access all of my albums to choose from. Or at least is there a way for me to change the limited number of albums that Ambient Mode is displaying. It seems like the albums that are provided to me as options, are the albums with my most recent pictures. I would like to get some of my older albums on my Ambient Mode slideshow.

Hey there fvonsegg,

Thank you for visiting the Chromecast Community! Since this thread hasn't had activity in a while, we're going to close it to keep content fresh. We hope you were able to get the help you need, but if you're still having issues, please check out this article, and I would remove your Google Photos albums from Ambient Mode, then re-add them back.

If the issue persists, feel free to create a new thread, and provide as many details as possible so that others can lend a hand. Hope this helps!

Best regards,
Jeran
