Video Transcript

"Hello, my name is Luis Estrada and I'm a Software Developer. In this video, I'll show you how to add a Podcast to your website. I am using Front Page. Front Page is a registered trademark of Microsoft, a company to which I have no affiliation. The first thing that you need to do is to create a free account in a Podcast service such as Gcast. This website hosts your audio files for free and then provides you with an audio player like this one to listen to your files. Click on the sign up link. Enter your data to create an account. When you create an account, an email will be sent to verify your email account. You will have to click on a link provided in the email, then you will see your member page. We will upload our first file. Choose a title for the Podcast. Then browse to the location of your MP3 file. Optionally, you can provide the description for the Podcast. Then you can select, if you want your audio clip to be immediately available on your Podcast list for everyone or simply upload the file for later publishing. Finally, press on the upload button. Once the upload is finished, go to your Podcasting channel. Your new file is ready for playback, just press on the button. I'm Luis Estrada and I've just showed you, click to this player in your web page, click on the link below then you can configure the size and appearance of your player. You can choose if you want the player to start playback, as soon as the page is loaded or wait for the visitor to click on the play button. Also you can configure if the Podcast will be repeated when finished or played only once. Select the code displayed and copy it. Then go back to Front Page and using code mode, paste the code inside the body tag. Finally, go to preview mode to playback your Podcast.
