Create Playlist for Your Content

Written by Khandoker Zishan

What Is A Playlist?

A playlist allows you to curate and organize your chosen content items into a sequential list. This list can then be shared with your viewers, enabling a guided and tailored content consumption experience for them.

How to Create a Playlist

Click on 'Create Playlist' and enter the name of your playlist.

The different sections of the Playlist

The sections of the playlist are described below:

  1. Add Content: Add your livestream and VOD contents to the playlist from here.

  2. Playback: This houses the option for playback:

    1. Autoplay next item: This enables the playlist to automatically transition to the following content once the ongoing content ends.

    2. Autoplay on load: The playlist will start playing the contents upon loading.

    3. Loop: After playing the final content, the playlist will play the initial content.

    4. Shuffle: This will shuffle the contents for the viewer.

  3. Settings: This houses all the security options for the playlist player:

    1. Securities: Set up security for your player with password protection, domain whitelisting and geo-blocking/whitelisting.

    2. Social Sharing: Allow viewers to easily share the playlist on social medias.

  4. Embed Code: This houses the options for player URL.

How to add contents?

To add contents, click on Add Content and add the relevant contents for your playlist.

Once the content has been added, your playlist is ready to be shared.

Autoplay First Content

The first content in the playlist will autoplay when the parameter ?autoplay=true is appended to the player URL. Meaning the player URL in this case will be https://player.castr.io/playlist/xxx?autoplay=true
