Start your first slideshow
Back to HelpTo kick things off, start the webserver using:
❯ ./gscreen start --data-dir "<local database path>"
Note
gScreen stores metadata in the directory specified by --data-dir. Making modifications to files in this directory could result in gScreen behaving inconsistently.
Navigate to http://localhost:9999 to get started:
Note that gScreen needs to download metadata about your photo library before it can start serving media, so you may have to wait for 30-60 seconds before the slideshow starts working, especially for libraries with 100k+ media items.
