Python Kivy and adding local photos to Carousel

Please forgive me I am in my infancy learning Python and started using Kivy not too long ago.

I am simply trying to add photos from my "carousel/" directory in my project to be each photo that comes up in the carousel app one by one when it loads.

The code runs fine, and I am even able to load Async photos with the link to the photo, but for whatever reason when I try to load photos from my "carousel" folder they don't show up.

I know that these photos return otherwise because I used the "Image" call and it worked, I also looked all over and there were other solutions but I could not make the connection between their solution and what it is I need.

Here is the code and a picture below, like I said the code builds and runs fine but the pictures won't show up. Thank you in advance!

[from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.carousel import Carousel
from kivy.uix.image import AsyncImage
from kivy.core.image import Image
from kivy.factory import Factory


class CarouselApp(App):

    def build(self):

        carousel = Carousel(direction='right')

        for i in range(0,2):
            src = "carousel/%s.jpg" % str(i)
            image = Factory.AsyncImage(source=src, allow_stretch=True)
            carousel.add_widget(image)
        return carousel

CarouselApp().run()][1]

You have to store all your pictures in a folder called carousel, and you can remove the Factory.

Example

main.py

from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.carousel import Carousel
from kivy.uix.image import AsyncImage


class CarouselApp(App):

    def build(self):

        carousel = Carousel(direction='right')

        for i in range(0, 6):
            src = "carousel/%s.png" % str(i)
            image = AsyncImage(source=src, allow_stretch=True)
            carousel.add_widget(image)
        return carousel


CarouselApp().run()

Output

You are trying to load 'carousel/0.jpg' and 'carousel/1.jpg' instead of 'carousel_images/00.jpg' and 'carousel_images/01.jpg', Try this:

from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.carousel import Carousel
from kivy.uix.image import AsyncImage
from kivy.core.image import Image
from kivy.factory import Factory


class CarouselApp(App):

    def build(self):

        carousel = Carousel(direction='right')

        for i in range(0,2):
            src = "carousel_images/0{}.jpg".format(str(i))
            image = Factory.AsyncImage(source=src, allow_stretch=True)
            carousel.add_widget(image)
        return carousel

CarouselApp().run()
