Slideshow in shared folder for the OneDrive App in XBox One

DryerHickory159 · May 9, 2017

Is there any option to present a slideshow for an album shared in OneDrive? I shared an album from my personal account to our family OneDrive Account, to view it in XBox One. The album shows in XBox, and each photo and video works fine, but the upper status
bar is always visible. Is there any way to hide that bar or to start a slideshow with those pictures? I went through the options shown in that upper bar and couldn't find anything like that. I would like to know if that is available or, if not, it would be
a good thing to add in a future version of the app.

Thank you!

:)

Slideshow for OneDrive shared album.

Is there any way to have a slideshow in the OneDrive App for Xbox One? I shared an album from my personal account to our family account in XBox. It's visible, every picture and video is displayed, but the status bar is always showing on top of each photo
while it's being displayed. I don't know if there is either a way to hide that upper bar, or to start a slideshow on a shared album in OneDrive. I went through the options displayed in the upper bar, but couldn't find anything like a slideshow option.

Any advice will be appreciated.

Hey there DryerHickory159,

You'll actually want to use the Microsoft Photos app on the console. this will allow you to view pictures from your OneDrive account and do a slideshow on the console.

You may need to search for in on the Xbox Store, but once you install it and select the folder with the pictures. Press the menu button on your controller and you'll see the option.

I tried it from the dashboard and pressed share to OneDrive and it says ‘Shared!’. I look on my app there is nothing in any of the pictures folders

You can use OneDrive. You get 5GB of storage for free.

In the capture settings on the console, you can set it so that captures are automatically uploaded to OneDrive if you like. You can also manually upload multiple captures to OneDrive at once via the Captures app. Also, you can upload an individual capture to OneDrive via the Share menu.

Once uploaded, screenshots will appear in the Pictures\Xbox Screenshots folder inside your OneDrive folder, and videos will appear in Videos\Xbox Game DVR.

I don't even know what folder they are supposed to go to. I see a Videos folder, but nothing in it. Xbox will tell me it's uploaded to OneDrive, but I never see them.

The only way I've been able to transfer is to use the Xbox app, in Captures, I'm able to download and share to a specific one drive folder. A bit of a hassle but at least I can get them.
