Search Media and Video Content
Vbrick Rev has robust sorting and search features that make it easy to find video assets and media content in the system.
Anyone may search for videos from anywhere using the Search Media field in Rev’s Header Navigation Options.
To search for video content and media assets:1. Navigate to User > Menu Bar > Search Media field.
2. Enter a search query. The text is not case‑sensitive and you can enter any combination of words and numbers (special characters are not permitted). Note: You are not limited by video names. Try categories, uploader, subtitles, and so forth to find the content you need. The results in the image below demonstrate videos found in a category search of “Training” for example. To further narrow you results, combine your search results with filters.
3. Rev will attempt to complete your search with type ahead auto suggestions.
Results will include only those videos that you have permission to view. You may view results by Grid or List view.
When viewing search results in Grid view, you may use the Sort dropdown to view results by the following attributes:
●Title
●Upload Date
●Uploaded By
●Relevance
When viewing search results in List view, sort all columns by ascending or descending view by your preference.
Note also that when viewing results in List view that, if your query is included in subtitles attached to a video, it will be highlighted in search results.
Use the Filters icon (in either view) to further narrow your search results by specific video attributes. See: Video Search Filters.
Speech Search Results
Most often, video titles are what are entered in the Search Media field and, as a result, search results are weighted toward those title searches. However, keep in mind, you may also search the transcript speech of all videos so that you can find specific videos that include those phrases in the audio transcript of the video and not just use the video metadata for your video searches.
Tip: Subtitles must be added to the video before a speech search may be performed. See: Add Subtitles to a Video. |
Keyword matches within a video’s subtitles are included in search results. Subtitle matches will include the time and text with the matching search string highlighted:
Further, if a video contains more than one audio search result, they are contained in a list sorted by start time. This is displayed in the image below (List view).
Keep in mind:
●Each audio result is an active link to the video player page. The video will start playing from the start time link that is clicked.
●Rev will only search subtitles for the user’s language. For example, if the user’s Rev interface is in English, search results will only include matches associated to English subtitles.
●As noted, the video must have a subtitle file associated with it before it will be included in an audio search.
●You may also search individual video files for specific metadata content by using the Video Pulse Flyout on the video player. See: Search for Speakers and Audio Transcript Speech in a Video.
