Short URL

Description

EZWebPlayer offers several publish codes from which to choose for each of your videos or channels. Using the Short URL has some characteristics about it that makes it uniquely useful for;

• Printing the code on printed collateral such as including it in brochures, business cards, letters and documents that get mailed or shipped. This also includes pens, coffee mugs, t-shirts, etc.
• Including in emails as clickable links. Extra long links are more easily corrupted in some email programs, such as when an extra line break is inserted by M.S. Word and then copy and pasted into email clients like Eudora, or mobile device sharing.
• Relaying the link aurally over a telephone or over voice mail. Shorter links are much easier to explain.

The Short URL will open your player up in Quick View mode. This will be a stand alone player or a player with a Quick View Template attached to it.

Using the short URL to share, post or otherwise publish your video or channel is described below.
