  • Click on Change or the + icon to change the thumbnail
  • Select your thumbnail file from your system
  • Select the area of the image you want to set as your thumbnail
Info

Check video associations & linking

The video library presents this information in a detailed table format, providing an organized view of each video's linkage across course chapters, live events and pages. 


Here, you have the following details listed for each video:

  • Course name
  • Lecture name
  • Created on

  • Under Captions, choose a language from the dropdown.

How to track analytics?

The video library also shows you total views, average watch time and the total watch time of the video. 


You can check for these details under each video to measure the efficacy of your videos and how much of the video content is being consumed.

  • Select the video
  • Scroll to the bottom of the page
Video analytics will reflect the total views, average watch time and total watch time.

Important Considerations

  1. Video thumbnail image format should be: JPG, JPEG, or PNG in the dimensions of 1920x1080px
