Bootstrap Carousel: How to Stop Auto Sliding on Large Screen

Bootstrap Carousel : Remove auto slide

You can do this 2 ways, via js or html (easist)

1. Via js

$('.carousel').carousel({
  interval: false,
});

That will make the auto sliding stop because there no Milliseconds added and will never slider next.

2. Via Html By adding data-interval="false" and removing data-ride="carousel"

<div id="carouselExampleCaptions" class="carousel slide" data-ride="carousel">

becomes:

<div id="carouselExampleCaptions" class="carousel slide" data-interval="false">

Trying to stop bootstrap carousel from pausing on hover

Set Pause to null and data-pause="false"

$crsl.carousel({//initialize
        interval: false,
        pause: null
 })

<div id="carousel-hero" class="carousel slide" data-ride="carousel" data-pause="null">

Read more about the carousel options here

https://v4-alpha.getbootstrap.com/components/carousel/#options

For avoiding the progress bar stop remove the code for crsl.hover which clears interval for the progress bar and restart it on blur.

Bootstrap Carousel Full Screen

Update Bootstrap 4

Bootstrap 4 has utility classes that make it easier to create a full screen carousel. For example, use the min-vh-100 class on the carousel-item content...

<div class="carousel slide" data-ride="carousel">
      <div class="carousel-inner bg-info" role="listbox">
            <div class="carousel-item active">
                <div class="d-flex align-items-center justify-content-center min-vh-100">
                    <h1 class="display-1">ONE</h1>
                </div>
            </div>
      </div>
</div>

Full screen carousel demo

This works to make the carousel items full screen, but carousel items that contain images or videos that have a specific size & aspect ratio require further consideration.

Since the viewport h/w ratio is likely to be different than the image or video h/w ratio, usually background images or object-fit are commonly used to size images and videos to "full screen". For videos, use the Bootstrap responsive embed classes as needed for the video ratio (21:9, 19:9, etc...).

Original answer (Bootstrap 3)

Make sure the img inside the carousel item is set to height and width 100%. You also have to make sure the carousel and any of the .item containers (html,body) are 100%...

html,body{height:100%;}
.carousel,.item,.active{height:100%;}
.carousel-inner{height:100%;}
