My Playlist and My Collection

In VIDIZMO, a Playlist is a compilation of audio and video content that is grouped together in a logical order for the viewers to enjoy the content sequentially and help form a structured understanding. A Collection, however, is a more advanced form of a Playlist that can also have images and quizzes besides a video or audio.

A Personal Collection/Playlist is different from a usual Collection/Playlist in such a way that only the creator of it can view, manage, and share it with others. By default Moderator+ portal users can create personal collections/playlists. But a Manager+ Portal user may also assign this permission to the other portal user(s) as well using Media Control Permissions on User Groups.

My Tracking

My tracking tab is visible to viewer+ users. You can filter the content through inserting the Start date and End date in which duration you opened any media file.

Issued Date: show the time when you viewed the media.

Category: of which category the viewed media belong.

Archived

The media content you uploaded and archived by you will be shown under this tab.

When any media file is in the pending state, a Contributor can make changes to it. If a Contributor makes changes in the media file after it's been approved or rejected, the Moderator+ roles will have to moderate the media again.

Note: All content that is uploaded by Moderator+ roles is managed and accessible to them via Media Manager.
