Video library

Clips and recordings.

Images at full width, arranged to be looked at.

The 90-second one outperforms the 22-minute one twelvefold. Length is the lesson.

What it does

Behaviours, not fields. Choosing between two modules is choosing between these.

Sorts and filters by duration, so a viewer with four minutes can find something that fits them.

View counts sit next to duration, which is how the length lesson becomes obvious.

Published dates let a back catalogue stay useful rather than looking abandoned.

How it works

  1. 1

    Videos are added with their duration, which is shown before the thumbnail is even considered.

  2. 2

    Views accumulate and sit next to length, so the relationship between the two is visible.

  3. 3

    The library sorts and filters by duration, so somebody with four minutes finds something that fits.

  4. 4

    Older videos stay listed with their publish date rather than being hidden.

Best for

Photos, generated packs, anything where the picture is the content.

Not the right choice for

Records that happen to have a thumbnail — that is Cards.

What a row holds

Every field, and what the agent listens for to fill it — which is the difference between a page you type into and one that fills itself.

What it does not do

A module chosen for something it cannot do costs more than one that was never offered.

  • No hosting. Videos live with a provider and are embedded, which means the provider decides playback.
  • Views come from whatever the provider reports, so two providers are not comparable.
  • No chapters, transcripts or captions unless the provider supplies them.
  • No playlists — ordering is by whatever column you sort on.

Before it works

What you have to provide, if anything.

  • Needs somewhere to host the files. This is a catalogue, not a player.
  • Record the duration accurately. It is the field doing the most work.

In practice

A roaster publishing how-to videos.

Put up the grinder setup clip, it is about ninety seconds.
What was said to the agent

What the agent built

A library entry with duration and publish date alongside the longer films.

What changed

The 90-second clip outperformed the 22-minute one twelvefold. Everything since has been under two minutes.

Questions

What data does the Video library page use?

It reads media records the agent has collected. Clips and recordings. Nothing has to be imported first — the page appears once there is something to show.

Do I have to build or configure it?

No. You describe what you need in a sentence and the agent chooses the view and fills it. Custom pages exist for the cases no built-in view covers, and those are reviewed before they go live.

When is a gallery the wrong choice?

Records that happen to have a thumbnail — that is Cards. It is best for: photos, generated packs, anything where the picture is the content.

Does it stay up to date?

Yes. The page is a view over the data rather than a copy of it, so anything the agent learns afterwards shows up without a rebuild or a re-import.

Ask for it in a sentence

You do not configure this page. You tell your agent what you need and it builds it from what it has already collected.
