Using the Audio tab on the Edit Media Window

How to use the Audio tab

The Audio tab on the Edit Media window allows you to specify options about audio files.

  1. Click Audio on the Edit Media window to open the Audio tab. 
  2. Mark Allow Audio for this input to allow audio for the media input.

  3. Toggle on Limit File Size to specify the maximum file size for the audio file. If an audio file is larger than the maximum file size it is deleted.
  4. Toggle on the Use Default Caption option to use a default a caption for the audio file. Then enter a caption in the Default Caption field.
  5. Toggle on the Use Separate Attachment Location option to add a separate location for audio files.

    Mark the Exclude the Files as Attachments on Email option if you do not want to include the attachment file on an email. This is useful when you don’t want to send the file to an end customer, or you know the attachments are too large for email, such as long videos. If you leave this option unmarked, the file attachments will be sent as attachments on the email, which is useful for customer-facing attachments, or when an email is sent internally to someone who may not have access to the storage location. When files exceed the limit set on email servers, no files are sent.

    Select the attachment connection to use for storing the attachments.

    Mark the Add Existing File Name to New Name Below option to use an attachment’s existing file name as part of the new name. In the New File Name field, name the attachments to identify the file in the connection folder. If the file name contains characters that are not acceptable by the storage solution, the unacceptable characters are replaced with an underscore. You can enter the form name if you want it to be part of the file name. If this field is left blank, the file name that exists is used. The extension of the file is maintained, regardless of the file name.

    Note: If no attachment data connection is set up, fields and options related to anything other than a photo are disabled.

  6. Click OK to save your changes.
