Quick start: your first protected course in 10 minutes

From creating an account to giving your first student a license: a step-by-step guide to protecting course videos with XAPlayer.

XAPlayer encrypts your course videos and creates a separate license for each student. With that license a student watches only on their own devices, with their own name on the picture. This guide takes you from nothing to your first student.

Five steps to your first student

1. Create a seller account. The first 14 days are free and include 10 free licenses.
2. In Videos, drag in your lesson files. Each video is made in 360p, 720p and 1080p and encrypted.
3. In Courses, create a course and put the lessons in order.
4. In Licenses, issue a license for a student: name, phone and the courses.
5. Send the student the code and the ready-made message. They enter it on the watch page and the course opens.

By default the student’s phone number is the text that moves across the video. You can type different text when issuing the license.

After that

• To continue after the trial, buy a storage plan from Wallet.
• If you sell on your own site, put the player on the lesson page with the embed guide.
• The Dashboard shows licenses issued, active devices and storage used.
