Template:Media table

Help:Media • Having trouble playing?

Usage

The code below produces the table above.

{{media table
|type1=video
|name1=Example.ogv
|title1=Example Video
|description1=Showing an example.
|length1=0:12
|type2=audio
|name2=Example.oga
|title2=Example Audio
|description2=Showing an example.
|length2=0:12
}}

The purpose of this template is to cleanly insert audio and video files into pages. The following parameters may be defined when using it. Replace X with a number.

• typeX - Can be set to either "audio" or "video". This parameter controls the icon displayed next to the file and how to handle the linked media.
• nameX - The filename that the file is uploaded as, excluding the "File:" prefix. So for the file at "File:Example.oga", this parameter would be defined as "Example.oga".
• titleX - The title for the file as it will appear on the page. For instance, if a file is uploaded at "File:Example246.ogv", but it needs to appear on the page as simply "Example", name would be defined as "Example246.ogv", and title as "Example".
• descriptionX - A short description of the file that will appear with it on the page.
• lengthX - HH:MM:SS format. Omit zeros please.

Note that for all the values, additional files can be added to the list by incrementing the number in the parameter.
