Is there a full screen video player and slideshow?
-
Hello, is there a full screen video player that acts similar to a slideshow?
and is there a photo slide show that is is fullscreen?Problem: my flickr image widget doesn’t show the images when i click the link so i wanted to display image albums another way and hope you could point me in a direction for that. I don’t want to upload to site because i’ll need the space for videos and don’t want to buy the expensive pro account since i have the 99yr package.
i thought portfolio would do it, but its not a gallery as i thought it would be. Just want to display photos beautifully in the harmonic theme that i’m using.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

If you want to display your images using the full-screen Photo Carousel https://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/media-settings/#image-gallery-carousel , you’d need to upload your images to your WordPress.com website and insert your images in a Post using the Gallery feature. https://en.support.wordpress.com/gallery/ You can’t hotlink photos from flicker or anywhere to create a Gallery. The images must be uploaded to your WPcom site.
You can insert a Gallery in a Portfolio project https://en.support.wordpress.com/portfolios/ and then feature that content on your site’s front page. And you can probably embed a flickr image in a Portfolio project (haven’t tried this myself) but you’d have to upload the Featured image in that project to your WPcom site to have the Portfolio thumbnail display on your site.
You mentioned that you already have the Premium bundle at $99/year. That gives you a total of 13GB of space for uploading media files, including video, images and mp3s.
If you are resizing your images to the recommended image sizes for Harmonic (see here: https://theme.wordpress.com/themes/harmonic/ ) and optimizing before uploading them, you should be able to stretch that 13GB to the max.
You can also adjust the default image sizes displayed on your site by changing the width of images under Media Settings https://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/media-settings/#image-sizes.
You can also set how wide your VideoPress embeds are as well. See the Support doc on VideoPress, including the FAQ on the second page: https://en.support.wordpress.com/videopress/

Thanks #justjennifer.
Is Vopod still able to function? I like how that plugin looks, but wasn’t able to install after downloading. Is said to activate in the wp admin/plugin/activate but my dashboard plugin menu leads me to a section that requires upgrading to cart…
Oh yea, how do i delete duplicated question in the forum? i notice quest. were repeated accidentally.

Vodpod is gone and you can’t install 3rd party plugins on WordPress.com. No upgrade here will change that. https://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/
The only tiers that have access to additional plugins are the Enterprise and VIP tiers and those cost hundreds/thousands of dollars a month.
