Share Audio-Video Resources

When you open an audio-video file, the URL in your browser links directly to the resource. This looks something like: 

https://audio-video.shanti.virginia.edu/audio/my-audio-file

Copy and paste this URL to share the resource.

If you want to link to only the media file – without associated metadata or transcripts – follow these steps: 

1. Open the audio or video resource you want to share
2. Click the Share icon  in the toolbar on the media file
   

   • Sharing options will appear overlapping the video

3. Click the top link 

   • A timestamp option will open

4. Fill in the time at which you want the video to start

   • This field is optional

5. Copy the link 
   • This link will take viewers directly to the media file

If you want to embed only the media file into your website, you can use an iframe. Follow these steps: 

1. Open the audio or video resource you want to share
2. Click the Share icon  in the toolbar on the media file
   

   • Sharing options will appear overlapping the media

3. Copy the iframe code in the bottom field
   • You can use this code to embed the media into your website
