What is the MediaRoll?
A MediaRoll is an embedded widget that uses an RSS feed to display the contents of a folder or playlist on your webpage or blog. Anytime you add to the folder or playlist, the MediaRoll updates. It's easy to create a MediaRoll - just copy the Screencast.com generated code to and paste it into your blog or webpage.
The MediaRoll will look and behave differently depending on if you are using a folder or playlist. The following short overviews explain the differences.
Playlist MediaRoll Overview
- Use a playlist to share a collection of content gathered from different folders of your library.
- You can add a piece of content to multiple playlists.
- When sharing a playlist, you share all the content in the playlist.
- Embed public and hidden playlists on your own Web page or blog using the Screencast.com MediaRoll.
Folder MediaRoll Overview
Folders act just like folders on your desktop; you place content inside a folder to group files together in one place.
- You can only add a piece of content to one folder at a time.
- When sharing a folder, you share all the content in the folder.
- Embed public folders on your own Web page or blog using the Screencast.com MediaRoll.
