The Media Hub is available in the WorkCast Classic studio and is where pre-loaded media will appear for Simulive events
There are three tabs available in the Media Hub pod.
Present tab
This is where you/your presenters can view the preloaded media attached to the event.
Prior to the event you will see a red bar under the media window with a Preview button available. This button allows you to test your uploaded media to ensure this will play out as expected.
Once in preview mode, if you wish to listen to the audio within the studio click the test event audio button.
Once you are finished previewing please click the stop button.
Please note: the media will broadcast in the Media Hub and on the event Auditorium page. For this reason we recommend locking your Auditorium temporarily until you have completed the preview process. To do this, visit the Event Interactions pod within the WorkCast Studio.
Be sure to unlock the Auditorium once complete so viewers can access the page on the broadcast date
Please note: Locking an Auditorium will not work if you are embedding your media into HubSpot or your own website. Please bear this in mind when previewing the media on embedded events.
At the time of the event - the preview button will disappear from red bar under the media window roughly 1.5 hours prior to the scheduled start time and instead you will see a countdown to the broadcast.
One minute prior to the broadcast a Join button will appear. This allows you to view the media from the studio without logging into the auditorium.
Please note, to hear the audio you will need to click Test Event Audio.
Session Content tab
Here you can change the media attached to an event if needed by clicking the Search Media button. This will then give you a list of the uploaded and available MP4 media in your WorkCast Account.
Click here to see how to upload media.
We recommend you change the media no later than 1 hour prior to broadcast.

1. Connect - Click here to connect to your audio.
2. Mute - Click this to mute / unmute your microphone.
3. This area allows you to see the audio connection status of all users within the studio.
