Catalog and Video Management

The catalog is the central place for organizing and managing your video content in Kinescope. Here you can create projects, group videos by folders and tags, set up playlists, search for files, and track view analytics.

Who this section is for

• Content managers — need to organize a large media library and quickly find files
• Project administrators — need to configure the catalog structure and access rights
• Marketers — need to track view statistics and analyze content performance
• Course creators — need to organize learning materials and create lesson playlists

Where to start

• Just starting to fill the catalog — see the ways to upload files: drag-and-drop, whole folders, links, and cloud storage
• Media library has grown — bring order to it with projects, folders, and tags
• Need to know what people watch — start with view analytics

What’s in this section

• Advanced file upload — six upload methods, supported formats, and bitrate recommendations
• Organizing your media library — projects, folders, and tags; the interface works like a familiar file system
• Media file settings — privacy, access, and embedding for a whole project or a single file
• Share a Folder or Project — public link, password, expiry date, and revoking access
• Catalog search — search by name, tags, upload date, and other parameters
• Playlists — video collections with a strict playback order for courses and presentations
• Working with files — subtitles, chapters, and additional audio tracks
• Built-in video editor — trim, cut segments, and split video right in the browser
• Analytics — views, engagement, geography, and audience behaviour
• Recycle bin — deleted files are kept for 30 days and restored in a couple of clicks

What’s next?

After organizing the catalog we recommend:

1. Video player: setup and embedding — player appearance and embedding video on your site
2. Content protection — watermarks, DRM, and access restrictions
3. Team management — workspace members and access rights
4. Getting started — if you haven’t created your first project yet
