The home page already lists every category, video group, genre, and tag as its own line of videos. Search and Filters cut across all of them at once, on the home page and on Manage Videos. This guide goes through every filter.
1. Search as you type
The Search box in the sidebar finds videos by name as you type. Results replace the home page in a grid, with the count in the corner; Clear search brings the home page back.
2. The Filters panel
The Filters button next to the search box opens the panel. Every section narrows the results, and the match count at the bottom follows along.
- Categories, Groups, Genres, Tags: click a chip to keep only videos with that label. Several chips in one section means any of them. Select all and Clear sit on each section.
- Unassigned: the first chip in each label section finds the videos that have no label of that kind yet.
- Folder Location: the watch folder a video came from.
- Thumbnail: videos with a poster, or without one.
- Kid friendly: marked, or not marked.
- Length: any, an exact duration, or a range between two times, typed as minutes and seconds.
- Combine: Any (or) keeps a video that matches one of your picks; All (and) needs every pick to match.
Reset clears the filters and Done closes the panel. The filters go into the page address, so a filtered view can be bookmarked or shared with another profile.
3. The same filters on Manage Videos
Manage Videos has the same panel, plus Transcode (done, in progress, not started) and Status (visible or hidden). As videos arrive in your folders, filter down to the unassigned ones and organize them in one go with the bulk bar.
Good to know
- Kids profiles search the same way, but only among kid-friendly videos.
- Genres and groups appear in the filters and on the home page as soon as one exists; they are made on Organize Videos.
- Length accepts
1:30style values, or plain seconds.
