ATV1 screen saver photo shuffle?

Question

I have synced about 8500 photos onto the ATV1 hard-drive.  I have selected them all to be shuffled - yet it seems the same 200 or 300 photos turn up when the screen saver kicks in.   Any suggestions on how to get a wider variety engaged in the screen saver shuffle?  Thank you..
