Sync your YouTube Channel with InstantEncore

We've made it even easier to manage your videos on InstantEncore. If you have a YouTube channel you can sync it with InstantEncore so that all of your existing videos are automatically imported. Also, in the future any videos you upload to YouTube will be imported automatically.

To use this feature do the following:

1. Go to your Control Panel
2. In the "Digital Assets" section click "Videos"
3. Click "YouTube Channels" in the menu on the left
4. Submit the name of your YouTube Channel

All videos will be automatically tagged with your name, and you can set it up to auto tag any other artists, ensembles, etc that will appear in every video.

As always, if you have any questions just drop us note or leave a comment.

Website update Nov 2, 2009

A few updates went online recently. Here's a quick recap:

Redesigned Work, Venue, City and Metro Area pages

The Work, Venue, City and Metro Area pages have all received a face lift. The pages now have the same format and similar features to our artist pages on InstantEncore. To access these pages just click the name of any Work, Venue, City and Metro Area when you are browsing InstantEncore. In the future we plan to make these pages searchable from our Search Bar at the top of every InstantEncore page.

Here are some examples:

Mozart: Symphony no 41 in C major, K 551 "Jupiter"

Kimmel Center

New York

Download audio files from the Control Panel

You can now download your audio files directly from the Control Panel. If you need to re-use the audio for another album or if you just want to keep a copy for yourself on your computer you can get the downloads by logging into your Control Panel and going to the album page (click "Upload Audio" from the menu on the left of the album page). No more need to create a download code that you'll only use once!

Miscellaneous Tag

This new tag was designed for the small niche of our partners who needed to tag people/organizations that should be associated with an item but aren't technically the presenters or performing. For example, if you want an album or concert listing to show up on the InstantEncore page of an artist management firm you can tag them in the miscellaneous field. The public won't see the name of the artist management firm when looking at the concert listing, but the concert listing will show up on the artist management's IE page, iPhone App, or WebKit widgets.

As always, please send us your feedback. You can either leave a comment on the blog or send us an email.
