Adding videos to the library #

1. Before getting started with building the Video-On-Demand Streaming Service, you will need to upload a series of videos to the Video Library bank in the Dashboard.
2. To do this, firstly click ‘Libraries’ on the left-hand menu and click on ‘Videos,’ which will appear as an option in the secondary menu to the right.
3. Click on the ‘Upload Video’ icon to upload your chosen video(s).
4. A pop-up will appear, which will prompt you to locate and select the videos you want to upload to the Dashboard.
5. Once the upload starts, your video will appear in the library and will enable you to edit details about your video. You can do this by clicking on the pencil icon to edit.
6. In this page, you can:
   a. Add a title to your video (maximum of 66 characters)
   b. Add a short description (maximum of 256 characters)
   c. Upload a poster image, which will appear as a thumbnail
   d. Add a description about the video in the rich-text editor field
   Attendees are more likely to watch videos that have eye-catching thumbnails and engaging
   descriptions!
