Procedures

Add a Text Transcript to a Video

Transcripts are simple text files that contain the text of your video. You need to create them manually. Cisco Show and Share does not create them for you.

If you are saving your transcript as text from a word processing application, choose UTF-8 as the output encoding. If you do not, certain formatting, such as curly quotation marks and apostrophes, may not appear correctly in the transcript tab. Also, Do not add extra returns between paragraphs in your text file. It will result in large gaps between the paragraphs on the Transcripts tab.

Procedure

Step 1 Expand the Add Optional Files drawer.

Step 2 Under Text Transcript, click Browse.

Step 3 Select your text transcript file and click Open.

Add Downloadable Files to a Video

You can upload any number of additional files to your video, such as a presentation, a PDF file, or downloadable media files, to your video. Additionally, you can add links to files that are hosted on another server, such as a web server.

Note Some browsers will automatically play attached media files when they are clicked on. When uploading an audio or video file for viewers to download, create a .zip archive of the video first, and then upload the .zip file.

Limitations and Restrictions

Remote files that you link to must be available through HTTP or HTTPS.
