Immichframe not showing new album images

[nicholas-brown]

How often does immichframe refresh the list of images in the connected album? Is this what RenewImagesDuration is for? I am finding that when I add new photos to my album, I don't see them on the frame in any reasonable amount of time (if I restart immichframe they show up, but I'd rather not have that set to restart so often).

RefreshAlbumPeopleInterval adjusts the time in hours it refreshes. Zero is allowed.

Thank you!

It seems that after v1.0.28.0 this can no longer be zero, causing the following error if it is set to zero

An unhandled exception was thrown by the application. System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: The relative expiration value must be positive. (Parameter 'AbsoluteExpirationRelativeToNow') Actual value was 00:00:00.    at Microsoft.Extensions.Caching.Memory.MemoryCacheEntryOptions.set_AbsoluteExpirationRelativeToNow(Nullable`1 value)    at ImmichFrame.Core.Helpers.ApiCache..ctor(TimeSpan cacheDuration) in /source/ImmichFrame.Core/Helpers/ApiCache.cs:line 12 

This parameter appears to be an int so is the lowest possible interval now 1 hour?

@jpg0 Any easy fix for this?

[jpg0]

Yeah, it should be an easy fix; I can just set a minimum value of 1 second.

I think the issue is some people want zero so it picks up newly added images ASAP.

#441

This sets the cache to expire after 1ms, so should show things immediately.

(Note also when we switch to stream images from Immich rather than preload them, this shouldn't be an issue anyway.)

Thanks!

It seems I still have issues to understand this. I've set RefreshAlbumPeopleInterval to 0, but still a new photo does not appear on my test devices (Browser or IOS App, I'm waiting for my Frameo frame to arrive).

It does not seem to be a server issue, because when I refresh the browser window or restart the IOS app, the new picture is there.

Also, when I shut down the container, both - browser and IOS app - are still happily working. So it seems the content is also cached in the displaying device - how often is that updated?

IIRC the device gets 25 images and then requests for more. If you refresh the client, it will request 25 new images.
