I’ve a number of AppleTVs. I want to have a slideshow operating pictures of the previous 12 months’s adventures and show the placement on the backside left and the date taken on the backside proper nook of every picture. Sure, this easy characteristic must be one thing that Apple’s personal slide reveals and AppleTV may do on their very own with out my intervention – however Apple has dropped the ball on a lot of their software program…. I digress.
I’ve written a Shortcut to take a folder of my favourite pictures exported from Pictures (which comprises the mandatory EXIF information), overlay the mandatory data, after which save every as a brand new picture in a brand new folder. I’ve managed to get this to work tremendous – with one exception. The take a look at folder has 10 photos in it, whereas, in the actual world, the precise folder will maintain ~1000 photos. The Shortcut runs and pauses, asking me to click on on every picture within the folder by way of a thumbnail the shortcut shows; after I’ve clicked 10 occasions, the processed photos all seem in my goal folder, and the textual content overlays appears to be like nice.
How do I edit the Shortcut, or covert it to an automation, or every other affordable strategy in order that I can simply level it to a folder of 2000 pictures and have it do its factor with out bothering me? I concern this is perhaps a limitation of the “Overlay textual content” motion in Shortcuts, however I’m not certain.
Beneath is a replica of the Shortcut.
