  I have my pro Flickr account set up that I can email photos and videos to it from my phone and they will automatically post to my WP.com blog:

  Upload to Blog: When you upload photos by email, use the subject line to give your photo or video a title, and the body of the email to give it a description. (http://www.flickr.com/account/uploadbyemail/blog/)

  Pictures work great! But WP.com only posts an image and link for the video, not the video itself.

  Since WP.com allows Flickr video, and auto Flickr posting in general, plus the Blog This button access, it can’t be a problem of blocking. It’d make no sense for all these ways but one to be allowed, so there must be a way to have the auto here too. I just can’t find it.

  How do I set this up?

  Thanks!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I’ve never heard of it working. In general, WP.com discourages autoposted material. You can contact staff and ask them:
