Showing slide show on Apple TV impossible!

Trying to show an album of about 400 photos as a slide show. Starts ok but becomes confused after about ten photos, shows random photos, then starts going back through ones already shown. This happens with different albums of various sizes. Seems slide show only works with a small number of photos.

  1. Is this from an iCloud Photos album, or from Home Sharing?
  2. Is this for a slideshow in the Photos app or Computers app, or as screen saver? Slideshow gets the images as they are needed (unlimited as far as I can tell), while the screen saver transfers the files to Apple TV cache and the amount depends for a great deal on available disk space.
  3. Images have to be in supported formats, as compatible with your model Apple TV, which might differ from the source (e.g. not PNG).
