photos in Apple TV

After a few minutes of music from My Computer, Apple TV stops showing album covers and begins to show random photos that we have saved on our iMac. Yet some photos do not get selected. How can we control Apple TV to show more photos? Thanks.

AppleTV 2, iOS 5.0.1

Unlike slideshows which stream the photos from your computer, the screensaver uses photos that are stored locally on your Apple TV. The Apple TV only has a limited storage and therefore the number of photos available for screensaver are restricted. The number of photos that can be used by screen saver is dictated by the size of the photo (resolution), having smaller photos will enable screensaver to use more of them.
