Timecode & Markdown Formatting for Streaming Event & VOD Descriptions

Markdown is a lightweight method to style text on the web. We now support the following markdown for Streaming Event and VOD descriptions.

Timecode

Any timecodes formatted with a colon will automatically be converted to a clickable link, which will advance the timeline to the associated timecode. This is a great way to add chapter markers to your VOD content.

Example timecodes:
20:30
0:05
1:30:40

Links

Links to external domains open in a new tab, and links to the StreamShark.io domain will open in the same window.

Line breaks

At the end of a sentence add two empty lines to add a line break.

This

Is

On

Separate

Lines

Headers

# This is an <h1> tag
## This is an <h2> tag
###### This is an <h6> tag

Emphasis

*This text will be italic*
_This will also be italic_

**This text will be bold**
__This will also be bold__

_You **can** combine them_

Lists

Sometimes you want numbered lists:

1. One
2. Two
3. Three

Sometimes you want bullet points:

* Start a line with a star
* Point two

- Dashes work just as well
- And if you have sub points, put two spaces before the dash or star:
  - Like this
  - And this

Three asterisk will create a horizontal rule.
