With the Video Platform, Content Creators may choose to replace their media contents and also update all the associated Embed Links with it. This is especially effective if you have linked media content outside of the Video Platform.
Replacing Media Through the Media Details
The Replace Media function can be accessed through the Media Details and is available for both linked and uploaded media content.
- Log into the Video Platform and click on Manage Media.
- Hover over the media that you wish to replace and choose More... to open Media Details.
- Click on Actions, then select Replace Media.
- Choose the new media that you would like to replace the original media with.
- Select whether you would like to preserve a copy of the original media.
- Once the media is replaced with the new media content, all the associated Embed Link with the original will also be automatically updated to the new one.
Replacing Media in the Video Editor
In addition to replacing media through the Media Details, Content Creators may also replace media directly through the Video Editor. This makes it simple to replace a currently linked file with an edited one.
- Log into the Video Platform and click on Manage Media.
- Hover over the media that you wish to replace and choose Edit to open the Video Editor.
- Perform any edits that you wish then click Save when done.
- Select the option Replace Existing Video.
- The current media will be updated with all the new changes, and all the associated Embed Link with the original will also automatically be updated.
