5a. Set the type to A Record.
5b. Set the Host to one word like "play" or "mc".
5c. Set the IP Address or Value to your server's IP (Not including the port)

Example: (Note: ​​​​the numbers for your IP Address will be different)
IP Address with port: 123.36.4.5:1234
IP Address without port: 123.36.4.5 (This is what you would put in the Value spot if that was your IP.)

The new host record should look something like this:
