Channel and Playlists

The video channels and playlists are a superior way to share your content with your audience. No need to copy-paste the link to the video every time you upload a new video. Share your channel URL or invite members to get access to your content and see the updates directly in their dashboard when new content is added.

Let's dig deeper to learn how to set up a channel.

Channel Settings

Note: You need to enable the dynamic watermark in the player settings to display the watermark.

Custom Domain (CNAME)

Now add a custom domain name for your channel. With CNAME, you can preview video channels on your domain name.
