How To: Post Event Video Uploading

Overview

Once content has been prepared for Video on Demand, the final step is uploading and processing the content to make this available to Delegates.

Video on Demand content is a key aspect of the post-event engagement.

Video on Demand content can be linked to either Sessions or Talks and is available as an embedded video player in the Session/Talk page once it has been approved.

All VoD content is tracked for each minute a User watches the Video and is available in the Reporting tools.
