Oral History Project upload instructions

Charlie has a number of mp3 files of various quality ready to be uploaded. Ken has agreed to clean them up a bit. Here are the instructions for uploading them to Kaltura.

Download the mp3 from the Digital Commons FC2 (KW - Oral History - Fixed) folder to the desktop. Sign into kmc.kaltura.com using brockport email and special password.

Click on content - upload from desktop - browse for and upload the file. Depending on the size, this may take a while.

Click on Name - Preview in Player - Audio only - Advanced Options (Delivery Type - HTTP Progressive Download, Embed Type - Auto Embed)

Copy the tiny URL generated at the bottom - paste into the appropriate metadata field. Choose other Rich Media for streaming media choice.

Kaltura Links:

Links go in the Streaming Media field, and the Media Format is “Other rich media”
You can add up to 2 files on one metadata page, so for Bruce Lee, the links would go into the Streaming Media and Additional Streaming Media fields. Make sure to update the format for both.

A good thing to go into the comments field might be a line that tells that the transcript is the downloadable file.
