Question:

How to Annotate Audio Files in PromoMats?

Answer:

Annotate functionality is not available for Audio Files in PromoMats. Therefore, the View Annotations button is not visible.

A user can Annotate an Audio File by placing comments in the document-level comment area. 

Annotate permission is needed to place document-level comments in an Audio File document.

In order to Annotate an Audio File, a user can play the Audio File and place a document-level comment during audio playback. Vault automatically inserts a timestamp in the comment field.

When the audio is paused or not playing, you can enter a timestamp manually using the format @MM:SS (@00:32) or @HH:MM:SS (@01:02:32). These timestamps become links that skip to the specific time in the audio file.
