  • Is it Sharepoint 2013 on premise or Sharepoint Online? If on premise, have you applied any update or made any changes into masterpages? Have you tried contacting Microsoft Support? Do you have any background information that could help?

I have faced this issue too. There was problem with Pictures library this month due to updates by MS. Check service messages in admin center below are details. It says service restored but there are still issues reported by people.

SP101452 - Picture Library Slideshow not displaying images

Status:Service restored

User impact:Users may have been unable to view images within a Picture Library Slideshow web part.

[Update]

Other problem causing this issue may be CDN policy by MS you need to enable CDN for you picture library. you can execute below script with Powershell

$creds = Get-Credential
Connect-SPOService -Url sitename-admin.sharepoint.com -Credential $creds

Get-SPOTenantCdnEnabled -CdnType Private

Set-SPOTenantCdnEnabled -CdnType Private -Enable $true 
Set-SPOTenantCdnEnabled -CdnType Private 
Add-SPOTenantCdnOrigin -CdnType Private -OriginUrl */libname

  • You can see this in admin center of your portal or contact Microsoft for that

Well, the feature of Picture Library Slideshow Web Part for automatically doing slideshow based on certain time duration will not be working for your Picture Library until CDN is enabled. Find Official Reference

So to solve the existing Issue for your app, Please ask your O365 tenant Admin to enable CDN.

Action Plan: Use Powershell commands to enable CDN by following this MS Article

  • Both of these links direct to relatively long external blog posts, which could one day not be available. Could you extract the key points from the sources you mentioned and edit them to your answer?
