Share a Video
Rev offers multiple options to share a video with other users from the Video Player form in the Sharing flyout option.
*To share a video:
1. Navigate to the video you want to share and click the Sharing flyout to display sharing options that have been enabled.
2. Select the Link tab to display the video URL. The Embed tab is used to generate and share the embed code for the video such as on a 3rd party Website. See: Embed a Video.
3. Select the Start at: checkbox to specify a specific time on the video’s timeline to start sharing the video. Otherwise it will start playing from the beginning.
4. Click the Password checkbox to display the password needed to view a Public video (if applicable).
5. Play the video and use the Pause button where you want the video to begin playing to have the Start time entered automatically for you. You may also enter the time manually yourself. If you enter an incorrect time, such as a time that does not exist, the video will play from the beginning when accessed.
6. Click the Copy button to copy the video link and start time to the clipboard. Note that not all browsers support this function. The button will not be present if your browser does not support clipboard copy.
7. The Share to Webex Teams button is active only if you have the Webex Teams integration activated in Rev. It will allow you to share the video to a previously defined Webex Team space. See: Share a Video to a Webex Team.
8. Click the E-mail button to generate an e-mail that links to the video. It will begin playing the video URL at the designated start time when clicked. The video title and description will also be included in the e-mail body.
Notes about video access:
The video must be in Active status to be shared.
If a video has been set to All Users access or Private status, users must log in to view the video. When sharing private videos, make sure that users have permission to view the video. Otherwise, users will be notified that they are not authorized to view the video after logging in.
This feature is not available for live video.
For Rev video links shared on sites like Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter to render a thumbnail, title, and friendly description of the video, your System Admin must enable this feature.
