Using clips: In Alexander Street Press clips do NOT have their own unique URL. Thus clips may NOT be played via OAKS. Clips can only be played within the database when logged in directly to this database.
Using clips: In FOD a clip DOES have its own unique URL. Thus an individual clip can be played separately via Oaks
Using clips: In Kanopy a clip DOES NOT have a unique URL. BUT, the playlist itself (which contains all of the clips) does have a unique URL. Thus, a list of clips does have a unique URL.
When creating a link to streaming media in OAKS, it is necessary to use the permalink generated by that media. This is the permanent, static hyperlink to that media. This is also know as a persistant link. These permalinks can be found in the same area as the media embed code within the media record.
Do not use the hyperlink shown in the top of the browser. This link is temporarily generated in the browser.
