Playlist Overview
By using a playlist, you can engage viewers with a collection of your videos. JWX allows you to create several types of playlists:
- Dynamic
- Manual
- Search
- Article matching
- Recommendations
The table below explains the usage and implementation of each playlist type.
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Dynamic | A Dynamic playlist automatically orders videos based on sort types, including:
When an editor adds new videos to the library that match the rules you have defined, the new videos will be automatically added to the playlist. |
| Manual | A Manual playlist allows you to create and order a static list of videos. Unless you update the playlist, neither the list of videos nor the video order changes after the playlist has been created. Manual playlists are limited to a maximum of 500 videos.
You can use manual playlists to feature videos you want to display in a specific order. |
| Search | A Search playlist creates a list of videos in your library based on a keyword search. Search playlists are limited to a maximum of 100 videos. |
| Article Matching | An Article Matching playlist inserts contextually relevant videos into your articles. Article Matching playlists are limited to a maximum of 100 videos. |
| Recommendations | A Recommendations or feed playlist serves videos based on the first video that a viewer watches. The recommendations are selected by using a blend of two proprietary methodologies: a version of association rule mining and content similarity of videos. Recommendations playlists are limited to a maximum of 100 videos.
If the recommendations algorithm cannot find any videos using the methodologies above, trending videos are served. |
