With the function "Duplicate video" you can create a copy of a video file. You will need a copy of the video, for example, if you want to provide identical, independent video files for two different departments, without having to upload the same file. In this context it should be noted that the following properties of the original file are adpoted for the copy:
- group membership
- security policy
- access profile
- used thumbnail
- metadata: title, description, keywords and person in charge.
The system automatically assigns a separate video-ID to the duplicate.
To duplicate a video file, proceed as follows:
Each video entry in the video list provides a context menu with additional options. Open the context menu of the video, which should be duplicated.
Duplicate videos requires that all formats of the video have already been converted.
- Click then on the [
Duplicate] button in the action toolbar. A popup dialog opens in which you can optionally select a channel.
- Optionally select a channel in the drop down menu, to which the duplicate video will be assigned. Click the [Duplicate] button.
- The selected video file will be duplicated and appears in the video list as "Copy of: <video title>".
- Now you can edit the copied file as usual.
