VIDIZMO provides extensive tracking for media playback from a playlist and maintains a record of the media which was viewed while also maintaining a user's individual viewing history. VIDIZMO also allows viewers to preview media such as videos, audios, images, documents, playlists, courses, collections, etc. Since every media format has its distinct page layout, the layout will vary according to the media being played.
The Playback page is divided into the following sections:
- VIDIZMO Player
- Table of Content
- Feedback Bar
- Related Media
By default, a 360p video in mp4 format is loaded on a player and for mobile devices, HLS is loaded by default. VIDIZMO supports HTML5, Flash and Silverlight for playback. The player is device independent and resumes from the last playback. This means if a viewer watches any media for a specific duration on your PC, then they can resume playback from the same instance on any other desktop/mobile/Mac.
There are different actions that you can perform on the player:
- Resize the Video: Videos can be resized by dragging the video at the edges to your desired size using the double-sided arrow icon
- Bookmark it: The icon lets you bookmark the video for later viewing.
- Copy Current location: The chain link icon lets you copy the current location of the video.
- Fullscreen Mode: The player can turn into a full screen viewer by using the Fullscreen link next to the vedeo volume button.
- Select a Different Rendition: Select a different rendition to view your video. Users can choose from 240p, 360p, 480p,720p, 1080p rendition.
Table of Contents
The Table of Contents comprises of all the videos and audio files that are a part of the playlist being played. On the other hand, the Information (i) tab comprises of the information about the content of the playlist. This includes the meta description, meta tags, etc. Viewers can also download content from the Table of Contents provided that the downloading option is enabled by the Administrators.
When a user finishes viewing a particular media, a Completed (tick) icon appears in front of the content denoting that the content has been viewed completely.
VIDIZMO can resume playback on all devices. Moreover, the tracking of the playlist is also independent of devices. Thus, Viewers can leave the content at any instance and can resume from any device.
Feedback Bar
From the Feedback Bar you can give your feedback on media uploaded on VIDIZMO. You can rate the content on the platform to express your opinion on any media file. Click here to learn more on How To Rate Media. From the Feedback Bar, there are a number of criteria that can be used to provide feedback such as marking the video as Favorite, Like/Dislike it, Report it or Download it. Commenting feature is configurable and Administrators can enabled it on the Channel. If a user comments on a playlist from the Playback page, it is submitted for that individual content only. However, if it is done from the Media Details page, it is submitted for the entire playlist.
