2. Separate Photo & Video Editing<\/strong><\/p>\n 3. Voice Over | Custom Audio Upload capability<\/strong><\/p>\n Details for each enhancement are below.<\/p>\n Enhanced iPad Viewer.<\/strong><\/p>\n We have completely re-written our tour viewer for the iPad which features your tour content in a very clean user interface. \u00a0Now, you can get a fully functional tour experience, including the video and the interactive floorplan tour on your ipad! \u00a0Just point and click your way around the floor plan with ease, just like the regular PC experience. \u00a0 It is also optimized for the screen orientation. \u00a0Hold your iPad in landscape mode, and the content tabs are on top and the content layout is optimized for that view. \u00a0Rotate the iPad to portrait mode, and the tabs move to the side and content shifts for that orientation as well. \u00a0We believe it is the most advanced and useful tour viewer for the iPad. \u00a0 Plus, if you have an Apple TV device, you can even play the video on your TV! \u00a0How cool is that?<\/p>\n Suggestions.<\/em>\u00a0 In order to make the iPad tour look its best, we suggest you add a marketing description, complete the property details, and add features. \u00a0 We have a details tab that really showcases the property details. \u00a0We even include the PDF of your flyer and printable floor plans. \u00a0\u00a0For older tours, video might not be viewable on your iPad tour due to a different format needed to display the video on the iPad. \u00a0This can easily be added by just going into your account to the Manage Tour page, then click Edit Tour, then Edit Photos\/Video. \u00a0Hit Save and Close<\/strong>, and your video will get processed by our video server. \u00a0We have already recreated over 1000 videos for tours going back to the end of October. \u00a0 So if your tour does not have a Video tab on the tour, just go in and edit it, or email us and we can re-queue all of your videos. \u00a0One other point. \u00a0There is no RoomPlanner tab on the iPad. \u00a0This tool is built using flash, and there is a lot of development work to port it over to the iPad….so until that happens (or flash comes to the iPad (likely never)), \u00a0the RoomPlanner will not be on the iPad version.<\/p>\n This enhancement is included at no additional cost for any active tour, and one reason it took us awhile to implement, so it works on all older tours! \u00a0Try it – just go to www.111anystreet.com<\/a> on your iPad. \u00a0Note…this tour also works on any computer. \u00a0 There are a few tweaks we want to do, but eventually, it can also be your default tour template for the PC as well. \u00a0Click here<\/a> to see the PC version on your laptop or desktop.<\/p>\n Separate Photo & Video Editing.<\/strong><\/p>\n We now have a way for you to separately edit which photos show on the Photo Gallery and WalkThru Video views. \u00a0It is all done through the same edit page – we just added another check box to show a photo on the Photo View or Video view, or both. \u00a0When you upload, all photos are added to both by default, but you can adjust what shows by going to the Edit Tour option on the Manage Tours page. \u00a0With this (and the custom audio tool mentioned below), you can further differentiate the photo and video views.<\/p>\n Suggestions.<\/span><\/em> \u00a0We highly recommend you keep your video between 1 to 2 minutes in length. \u00a0<\/span> Most users will not sit through a 5 minute long video…but if you highlight the best photos taken, add descriptive text, and now, even add a voice over, you can really make your video a multi-media marketing piece that makes you and your listing stand out. \u00a0 And don’t forget, you can easily and automatically add your listing video to either your own custom YouTube channel (or your company’s channel provided you give us the login info) or just upload it to our YouTube channel. \u00a0 It is FREE, and it is a great way to get additional search engine (“SEO”) benefits. \u00a0 For example, once your video has been uploaded and indexed by Google, the listing video typically shows towards the top on page 1 of the search results. \u00a0Just this little feature can show your seller that you are working hard to sell their home and differentiate it from all of the others.<\/p>\n If you like the Dashboard view on your tour, pick a different photo to start the photo or video view, and now you have 2 different images on the Dashboard view in the 2.0 tour.<\/p>\n Voice Over | Custom Audio Upload.<\/strong><\/p>\n This is something that has been asked for over the years…and we now have brought it to fruition! \u00a0You can now upload your own voiceover to the video so you can describe the property in your own way. \u00a0 Google is now indexing video text, so this also helps with the SEO of your tours, and you. \u00a0Plus, since we upload your video for free to YouTube, it gets better indexed by Google, since they own YouTube. Read more on that here.<\/a> You can also upload a file with your own music. \u00a0Just go to Manage Tours, select Edit Tour and then Edit Video. \u00a0You will see the button to upload the custom audio file. \u00a0Right now, we ONLY accept MP3 file types. \u00a0There are lots of free converters online if you have the file in a different type.<\/p>\n A word of caution:<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0 While you in theory can upload your own music with a voiceover, the music industry is on a war path about copyright violations. \u00a0Using music on a virtual tour is for a commercial purpose that requires a license from the copyright holder. \u00a0All of our music is validly licensed by companies the create or manage the music. \u00a0Therefore, if you have your own music you want to use, just make sure you have a valid license to use it. \u00a0 Real songs from real artists generally mean big money for a right to use – like thousands of dollars….so if we do find “brand-name artist” music being used, we will be forced to remove the file. \u00a0They have ways of electronically monitoring websites, and you do not want to have to pay fines or get sued…Neither do we….<\/p>\n Hope you enjoy the enhancements!<\/p>\n Kris Cone<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We are pleased to announce several new enhancements to the FloorPlanOnline marketing system: 1.
