4.7.1 Add Audioclip
This option allows you to upload files to
the LiveSupport server. To do so, choose Add Audio - Audioclip. The New
Audioclip palette will appear containing the following:
- Browse
button, which allows you to select an audio file and upload it from your
local hard drive or local network storage to the LiveSupport server.
- Cancel button,
that cancels the operation and exits the whole palette.
- Submit
button, which you need to click to upload the selected file.
Once the selected file has finished
uploading (the length of this operation will depend on your connectivity), you
will see the Edit audioclip palette (you will also notice that the uploaded
audioclip has become the topmost item in the ScratchPad.)
In the Edit audioclip palette, you can add
or edit metadata information stored in ID3 tags (if you have uploaded an MP3
file, for example, LiveSupport will use the ID3 tags stored with that
particular file). The palette opens with Main tab active, which stores the
basic metadata for any sound file:
- The Language pulldown lets you
select the language in which you want to create metadata. (The default
language is English)
- Title lets
you specify the title of the clip
- Creator
lets you specify the author of the clip
- Genre lets
you specify the genre of the clip
- File format (automatically detected and cannot be altered)
- Length
(automatically detected and cannot be altered)
- The Music tab allows you to view
and add additonal metadata that is relevant for music files. (The LiveSupport
administrator can customize this screen to contain only the metadata your
station uses and needs).
- The Talk tab lets you specify
metadata specific for voice recordings (e.g. news reports, interviews, soundbites,
etc.). It allows the reporter to include time and date of the reported
voice file, the covered organization and the location where the report was
recorded, short info about its content and theme.
If you make a mess in the metadata editing
process, you can resort to the trusty Reset button at the bottom of the
palette. A click on it will reset all the metadata fields you have edited.
