Manage Content – Playlist

A playlist is a list of files displayed in your TelVue® CloudCast™ player under a player category on the
Categories tab. You can create playlists of meetings, community events, ball games, etc. The Playlist
Name is what will appear as the Category in your TelVue® CloudCast™ player.

Note: Do not confuse the TelVue® CloudCast™ player Categories tab with the Category list in the
TelVue® CloudCast™ CMS. Each category on the player Categories tab corresponds to a playlist in the
CMS. The list of categories on the CMS is an internal aid for sorting and managing files. See the
Browse action.

Create Playlist:

To create a playlist, click the Create Playlist button under the Playlists tab on the Content page. A
blank Playlist Metadata screen is displayed.

Fill in the playlist metadata fields as needed.

CloudCast™ player on the Category tab.

Published? To make the playlist visible in the TelVue® CloudCast™ player, check this box. Your
account is typically set up with a maximum number of allowed published playlists. If you exceed
that limit, the application will display an error message. If you want to work on a new playlist and
don’t want users to see the playlist changes in the TelVue® CloudCast™ player while work is in
progress, then leave Published unchecked while editing it. You can return and check the Published
box once your playlist is ready for viewing.

When you have finished entering the playlist metadata, click the Save button. You now see the
Manage Playlist Items screen.
