The channel access can be controlled in the administration area of VideoManager. You can protect main channels including its sub-channels. Protected channels and all linked videos are basically not visible in the video asset management.
The administrator can release protected channels for particular roles which means that users with this role have access to this channel (and sub-channels) and linked videos.
The feature "Channel access" must be booked separately. It might not be available in your VideoManager. Please contact your administrator for further information.
To protect a channel, follow these steps:
- Select in the navigation the "Channel access" entry.
- In the middle area of VideoManager all main channels are listed. Select the channel, which you want to protect by clicking the corresponding entry in the list.
In the editing area on the right hand side, the following options are available:
Option Description Restrict channel access Activated: The access to this main channel channel including all sub-channels is restricted. The access can be released for particular roles (see below). Restrict video access Activated: Roles Activate the roles that have access to the restricted channel.
