Essential Clipstream Audio Files
Clipstream Audio needs several files accessible by its applet in order to play a clip. Read this page for a description of what each of them does. If you haven't already, please go through the Quick Start process to encode an audio file.

Requirements:
  • Encoded Clipstream Audio files

When you encode with the Clipstream Audio encoder and choose to "Launch the demo page" at the end of the encoding process, the Encoder will generate a number of essential files in addition to your individual audio files.

Note: to the viewer, except for the .html page and interface graphics, these files are not visible. They exist only on your webserver.

If you open up the folder where you encoded to, it will contain files such as these:


Here is a list of what these are and what they do.

Icon (different for Macs) Class Description
Audio files All the files that end with the extension .20, .32, .20i, and .32i are your unique audio files. The root name of these files will be the same as the name of your source audio file.
The .zip player The Clipstream Audio applet uses a mini-program within this .zip file to play the audio files. Do NOT unzip this file.
The .zip player for banners This is a lighter .zip mini-program that is used only for the banner advertising implementation. If you are not using the banner, then you can delete it. Either way, it is only 28k.
.cab file for IE This is another player that is used only by IE. It allows slightly faster performance for that browser.
.cab file for IE Same as above but only for the banner.
Graphics for banner. This is a default graphic that the audio banner uses for its background. You can replace this with one of your own design. If your graphic has different dimensions, then you will need to make changes to the height and width of the banner applet code in the default page. The graphics for the on-demand player are embedded in the audioclipstream.zip.
Branding graphic. This is the branding graphic for the on-demand player. Please do not remove this unless you are a licensed customer.
Default .html page. Upload this if you do not already have a page with proper Clipstream Audio and / or Bannerstream applet code embedded. Use this page as a starting point as you are learning how to adjust Clipstream Audio for your website.
