add a video slideshow

[misschristi]

I need some help.

I am trying to post a video slideshow in to my auction listing, and cannot figure out how to do that.

I have found on your website here, the codes to put the media player into the listing, but cannot figure out how to put the video or slideshow. Where do I replace the name of the files in that code, where can I post the video for a url?

If someone could help me out on this, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

can u post the code or the link to the code ?

Here is the code that I pulled off of another post. I can get the media player to post, but cannot put my slideshow from my computer to the code. I am not sure where to add it, or if I need to have the slideshow hosted by an internet based service to add it to this code.

If I need to have it hosted, I need to know where I can have it hosted to add the link, and also where to put the link in this code.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. If I need a new code, or something--please let me know. I would really like to learn how do this. Thanks and have a great day!

ok if your running this from a web page (which im guessing you will be doing as what else would you be doing here) then yes you will need hosting. Or alternatively use a free video hosting site such as www.photobucket.com or other. If you opt for free website hosting then streaming the video from a free server will be very SLLLOOOOOOWWWWW and painful for viewing (trust me i know). But as far as your code is concerned your just missing 1 <PARAM> tag to tell the browser where to find the video file.

ive adjusted the code below.

where it says LINK HERE then this is where you will put the path to your file located on your server or free video hosting site. If you need any more help wb.

PS. your link should appear twice as there are 2 LINK HERE statements
