Image caching problem

Opened this issue · 4 comments

If you send an image with the same name, the same image is displayed on TV until you change the file name.

Yes, i have the same problem.... did you figure out ? I used a delay of 3 secs.. still same..
In the browser, i do however see the image with newer timestamp

Yes you are right! Not ideal but working.

cool, will try with random.

also - was reading about this caching - it’s not a caching issue. If you want the image to update and you’re using the same image name, you need to display the image as a camera.
