When selecting the Photos library or a folder of photos, they do not render. Have tried various options (e.g., Classic, Ken Burns, etc.). No luck.
iMac Line (2012 and Later)
I wanted to edit this to add to it, but can't do that, so here we go. I did notice on the iMac that if I pick any other screen saver, Monterey, Hello etc. they work, it is just with photos that they do not work.

Agreed, only partly fixed. Appears to only use a folder called PHOTOS. Can not select another.
Are you saying you don't see "Choose Folder…" from the drop down menu?
That problem was fixed with the release of Monterey 12.1 update.
Same, screen-saver issue but also all the default sources for setting the Classic screen saver (or any slideshow screen saver basically) is gone since Monterey.
12.2.1 didn't solve it either.
Thanks for the tip, tried it!
Unfortunately, the issue remained in Safe Mode, the Default collections as source are gone:(
I've been using the Ken Burns one as a baseline. Just curious, are you able to use the Ken Burns effect in the Photos app when trying to create a slideshow??
Just tried Ken Burns, on the iMac and it does not work. I tried all the options with photos and none work. The minute I change to a "standard" screen saver it works.
Same problem here. Not working on my iMac... but works fine on my MacBook Air.
Have submitted a bug report to Apple.
I am not Robert, but it is working on my MacBook Air with Monterey, but not my iMac with Monterey
What year MacBook Air?
2020 not with the new Apple chip

Thank you. It's interesting. They do run on my M1 MacBook Air but not my iMacs or iMac Pro.
Exact same problem for me - come on Apple!
Same here, my MacBook works perfect, the iMac does not.
I'm seeing the exact same thing with the faint view behind the dark filter and the small preview window as expected. I'm hoping for a fix soon because the pictures were my favorite screen saver.
Works on my MBA M1 Monterey (2021)
Screen saver broken in Monterey
