In this form you can edit your video pages. Here you have every box explained.

VIDEO URL Insert the new video url in this box. We only accept videos from YouTube, DailyMotion and Vimeo. After introducing the url here, click on the button -Validate- (if the url is not correct or compatible you will get an error message). The url you need here is the one you can find at the top part of your Internet explorer:

Remember that when you modify any data on your video page (or simply click on the -Accept- button), the page will be automatically deactivated and it will be sent again to Administration for aproval.

IMAGE Just click on this box to upload an new image from your computer. The image box for the cover will have an aspect ratio of 16:9, so if you want your image to completely fill the box try to get an image with those proportions.

TITLE Change, if you want, the title of your video page.

LEVEL Choose the difficulty level for this video. The options are:
Basic = beginners or elementary level (very simple and easy to understand) (A1)
Easy = upper-elementary to preintermediate level (A2)
Medium = intermediate and postintermediate level (B1)
Hard = Advanced level (B2-C1-C2)

SINGER / PERFORMER If it is a song, write the name of the singer or band here. For some other videos sometimes it is interesting to write the performer (especially if it is a famous person). You can also use this box to write other information when the video is part of a series of videos or a fragment of a TV series. This information will appear in brackets "( )" next to or below the title.

TIME Write the minutes and seconds that the video lasts. There are 3 boxes, one for the hours, one for the minutes and one for the seconds. If the video lasts less than 61 minutes just leave the hour box empty. Make sure the time you insert is correct because the text scroll will be adjusted automatically using this information.

ACCENT Choose the variety of English they use on the video (if you know):
AmE = The kind of English spoken in the USA, Canada and the Philippines.
BrE = The kind of English spoken in the rest of the English speaking countries.
AmBr = Choose this option if you don’t know if they speak AmE or BrE, or if they use both accents on the video.
Foreign = Choose this if the person has an obvious foreign accent. Many people who are not native speakers have a good British or an American accent, so don’t choose “Foreign” unless their accent is strong.
No Voice = For videos with subtitles but no sound. If there is no sound and no subtitles don’t use the video.

COUNTRY/accent Here, if you wish, you can specify what country the speaker/s come from (if you know). If you chose BrE in “Accent” and they are from England you don’t need to specify the country here, and if you chose AmE and they are from the USA you don’t need to specify the country either because those are the default options. But for example, for an Australian speaker you should mark the accent as BrE and in the country specify “Australia”. If the speaker is not a native but their accent is good, you can specify their country here (for a Mexican speaker with a good accent simply write "Mexico" here); if the speaker is not a native and their accent is strong, write the accent here (for a Mexican speaker with a strong Spanish accent write "Spanish", not "Mexican").

CHANNEL Here you can choose the channel that best fits the nature of your video: Music (for musical videos), Lessons (for video lessons) or Cool (the rest)

SCRIPT TYPE Choose one of these options:
1- Script = If you provide the literal transcription of the video dialogue or the song lyrics.
2- Version = Text Version. This is a non exact or incomplete transcription of the video.
3- Title = You provide no transcription but the video comes with some subtitles that help you understand.
4- Subtitles = You provide no transcription but the video comes with the complete subtitles of the song or dialogue.
5- Nothing = There is no transcription or subtitles to help people understand. In this case, your video may be rejected unless it is very interesting on its own..

DESCRIPTION Write here a brief description of what the video is about. Try to make it short (unless you have lots of important information to share).
Tip: you can also see the description coming with the video on the Internet.

TRANSCRIPT Paste or write the video transcription here. If you need to format the text, when you finish creating your video page go to your user menu, get into your video section and edit your video there. When you edit a video you can add format to your text boxes (changing the colour of a word, underlining, bolding, etc.)

MEANING If you want, you can use this field to write your own interpretation of the song or the video content. Leave it blank if you have no idea.

EXPLANATIONS If your level of English is good enough, you can write linguistic explanations here. You can explain difficult vocabulary, grammatical constructions, colloquialisms, cultural references, etc. An easy way to do this is by looking the difficult words up in the dictionary and writing the words with their deffinition here. If you please, use the same format found in the Official Section, for example:

WORD TO EXPLAIN= The definition comes in small letters but the word or expression to define come in capital letters follow by the character "="

To the left of the Explanations box there is a phonetics button. If you want to insert a phonetic transcription in this box just click the button and a window will pop up. There you can write the phonetic transcription using a convenient keyboard with phonetic symbols. The symbols used are the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), the most widely used international standard for phonetic transcription. In the phonetics window you will find the instructions to use it. When you have your transcription ready, just close the window and it will be automatically copied to your clipboard. Click inside the Explanation box and paste it (right-click and choose "paste".or press the keys /control/ + /V/ in your computer keyboard to copy it).

You also have two icons opening two dictionaries, a monolingual one (English explanations) or a bilingual one (translations in many different languages)
