Introduction

You can easily upload and manage single audio content such as songs, audio clips, or vocals from your Muvi CMS. The single audio upload feature allows you to add individual tracks that can be streamed directly from your website or app. Once uploaded, the audio content becomes available in the Content Library and can be displayed on the front end for your users to play.

Adding a Single Audio Content

Adding a single audio content is a 2-step process. In the first step, you can add the basic content metadata — including the content title, content type, group, categories, and sub-categories.

In the next step, you can enhance your content by adding a thumbnail, banner, cast and crew details, and configuring options like monetization, security, and more.

This step-by-step guide will help you seamlessly add your single video content within the CMS.

Step 1: Adding Basic Content Information

• To add a single audio content, navigate to “Content Management” -->” Content Library” in the CMS.
• In the Content Library, click on “Add New”.
• On the right side, select the “Content Type” (e., Audio).
• Select the “Group” (i.e., Audio).
• Click on the “Edit Icon” at the top to change the content name from “Untitled Audio” to a name that you want to add for the audio.
• The “Permalink” will be automatically generated based on the content name.
• Select the “Categories & Subcategories” from the dropdown menu. (Click here to know how to add and manage “Categories and Subcategories)
• Under “Add Primary Media”, click on “Add” to upload an audio file for the content.
• Select the “Encoding Profile” from the drop-down menu. If you have not created any encoding profile, you can select “Default Audio Profile”. Click here to know how to create an encoding profile.
• You can select an audio file from your computer or select audio from the Asset Library (if you have already uploaded the video to the Asset Library). You can also “Drag and Drop” an audio file to the dialog box.
• Click on “Save and Continue” in the top right corner.
• The content information will be saved, and audio content will be created.

Step 2: Adding Media Assets and Additional Details

Once the audio content is created, you can enhance the content by adding a thumbnail, banner, cast and crew details, and configuring options like monetization, security, and more.

Adding Preview, Posters & Banners

• Click on the “Design” tab.
• Under “Poster”, upload a thumbnail or poster for the content. You can upload different sizes of posters for Web, Mobile, and TV platforms.
• Under “Banner”, upload a banner for the content. You can upload different sizes of banners for Web, Mobile, and TV platforms.

Adding Monetization

• Click on the “Monetization” tab to add monetization methods like subscription/PPV to the content. If you have not added the monetization methods, you can instantly add one.

You can also configure “Advertisements” for the content.

Adding Security Features

Adding People (Cast & Crew)

• You can instantly add the people’s information and map it to the content.

Adding Addons (Video, Audio, PDF, External Links)

• Add the “Search Tags” or keywords to help your end-users find your content easily on the front-end (e.g., romantic, vocals, etc.)

Saving & Publishing the Content

• Click on “Save and Publish” in the top right corner to save the details and publish the content immediately.
• You can select “Save and Schedule” if you want to publish the content on a future date.
