WEBVTT 00:00:05.759 --> 00:00:08.580 You set the start time and the time you want 00:00:08.580 --> 00:00:10.880 to then stop, you set the stop time and that's 00:00:10.880 --> 00:00:14.699 as simple as it is. We will take that audio clip 00:00:14.699 --> 00:00:18.559 and save it for you on the page. We felt that 00:00:18.559 --> 00:00:21.179 if you thought that the podcast creator had said 00:00:21.179 --> 00:00:23.059 something really interesting and you wanted to 00:00:23.059 --> 00:00:25.760 clip it up, you may also want to add a small 00:00:25.760 --> 00:00:28.320 micro payment as a thank you to that creator 00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:32.229 as well. welcome to Fanzone your bite -sized 00:00:32.229 --> 00:00:34.770 guide to getting the most out of the TrueFans 00:00:34.770 --> 00:00:38.469 podcast app in each episode we'll discuss an 00:00:38.469 --> 00:00:41.490 aspect of the app and hopefully answer any questions 00:00:41.490 --> 00:00:45.149 you may have about it plus when you listen to 00:00:45.149 --> 00:00:48.429 Fanzone in TrueFans you can earn as you listen 00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:51.399 and use your earnings to support your favourite 00:00:51.399 --> 00:00:54.520 podcasters. I'm Claire Waite Brown, independent 00:00:54.520 --> 00:00:57.399 podcaster and all -round podcast enthusiast. 00:00:57.500 --> 00:01:00.240 And I'm Sam Sethi, the CEO and founder of True 00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:04.200 Fans. We've been learning about some of the really 00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:07.459 fun, the exciting things we can do at an episode 00:01:07.459 --> 00:01:12.599 level using the tabs on our episode screen. The 00:01:12.599 --> 00:01:16.459 next tab I want to speak about, Sam, is clips. 00:01:16.599 --> 00:01:19.340 Now, I think I probably know what this means. 00:01:19.500 --> 00:01:22.840 I think this means I can make a clip, an audio 00:01:22.840 --> 00:01:26.239 clip, I'm assuming, of the audio. Is that correct? 00:01:26.780 --> 00:01:34.019 Correct. Yes, very meta. So the idea as a fan 00:01:34.019 --> 00:01:37.739 or a listener that you are suddenly hearing a 00:01:37.739 --> 00:01:40.459 part of the podcast, you go, that's amazing, 00:01:40.579 --> 00:01:43.609 great. and then you want to clip that up for 00:01:43.609 --> 00:01:45.730 whatever reason. It may be just to keep for your 00:01:45.730 --> 00:01:48.530 own reference, or it may be that you want to 00:01:48.530 --> 00:01:51.250 share it with the community, or thirdly, send 00:01:51.250 --> 00:01:53.469 it out to social media or add it to your email. 00:01:53.549 --> 00:01:56.370 The idea is that you can choose up to two minutes 00:01:56.370 --> 00:01:59.170 for a clip. Why only two minutes, Sam, I hear 00:01:59.170 --> 00:02:03.170 you ask? Because in the day when we first created 00:02:03.170 --> 00:02:06.250 the feature, the dominant social media platform 00:02:06.250 --> 00:02:10.629 was X slash Twitter, and Twitter limited the... 00:02:10.840 --> 00:02:14.120 time of a clip to two minutes of audio so that's 00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:16.879 where we set it will we increase that in the 00:02:16.879 --> 00:02:19.479 future who knows but at the moment it's a two 00:02:19.479 --> 00:02:22.620 minute clip that's the maximum we can do okay 00:02:22.620 --> 00:02:26.840 how do you actually physically make the clip 00:02:26.840 --> 00:02:30.400 then please so you're on the clips tab and what 00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:34.000 you can then do is listen to the audio and at 00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:37.479 the point you want to start you set the start 00:02:37.479 --> 00:02:39.780 time And the time you want to then stop, you 00:02:39.780 --> 00:02:42.180 set the stop time. And that's as simple as it 00:02:42.180 --> 00:02:46.199 is. We will take that audio clip and save it 00:02:46.199 --> 00:02:49.599 for you on the page. If you want to keep that 00:02:49.599 --> 00:02:54.819 clip for yourself, is it currently, we spoke 00:02:54.819 --> 00:02:57.400 in the last episode about notes and about notes 00:02:57.400 --> 00:03:00.439 being private, certainly for the moment, or you 00:03:00.439 --> 00:03:03.219 can choose them hopefully in the future. Is that 00:03:03.219 --> 00:03:07.330 the same with clips? No, clips are public at 00:03:07.330 --> 00:03:09.629 the moment. They're the same as comments. So 00:03:09.629 --> 00:03:12.009 when you save a clip, everyone else will see 00:03:12.009 --> 00:03:15.229 the same clip that you've just created. We haven't 00:03:15.229 --> 00:03:19.210 decided yet whether we will make clips private. 00:03:19.430 --> 00:03:21.650 I think what we're waiting to see is how people 00:03:21.650 --> 00:03:24.770 use clips more before we actually start to build 00:03:24.770 --> 00:03:27.590 additional features around them. Yeah, no, absolutely. 00:03:27.810 --> 00:03:32.210 And there is, I notice, an option to add a payment 00:03:32.210 --> 00:03:36.319 to a clip. Tell me a bit more about that. Yes, 00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:39.219 we talked in a previous episode about super comments 00:03:39.219 --> 00:03:42.460 where you attach a payment to a comment. We felt 00:03:42.460 --> 00:03:44.860 that if you thought that the podcast creator 00:03:44.860 --> 00:03:46.680 had said something really interesting and you 00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:49.520 wanted to clip it up, you may also want to add 00:03:49.520 --> 00:03:52.039 a small micro payment as a thank you to that 00:03:52.039 --> 00:03:54.639 creator as well. So when you create the clip, 00:03:54.680 --> 00:03:57.580 if you add a payment of any sort, it becomes 00:03:57.580 --> 00:03:59.939 a super clip. for the want of a better word. 00:04:00.340 --> 00:04:03.800 And that then sends the money to the podcast 00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:06.060 creator and the clip then gets stored with the 00:04:06.060 --> 00:04:10.539 episode. Brilliant. Thank you so much, Sam. Very 00:04:10.539 --> 00:04:14.460 welcome. Thanks so much for listening. There 00:04:14.460 --> 00:04:16.839 are lots more episodes of Fanzone for you to 00:04:16.839 --> 00:04:19.379 get stuck into and that show you how to make 00:04:19.379 --> 00:04:21.819 the most of the fab features that this forward 00:04:21.819 --> 00:04:25.259 -looking podcast app has to offer podcast listeners 00:04:25.259 --> 00:04:28.490 and creators alike. We'd love to hear from you. 00:04:28.529 --> 00:04:31.410 You can send us a comment on TrueFans.
