Mindstamp

Move through the video

Sequence a video playlist.

Chain videos into an ordered playlist so a multi-part programme runs as one experience with one report.

Works on the video you already have. No re-encoding.

Playlists shown in the Mindstamp editor

What it does

A programme, not a folder of links

Sending five separate links means five separate completions and no picture of the whole path.

One link for the series

Learners get a single entry point instead of a list they work through by hand.

Order can be enforced

Require the sequence where it matters, so module three is not taken before module one.

Progress across the set

Completion is reported across the playlist, not per video in isolation.

In practice

What belongs in a playlist

Anything with more than one part and an intended order.

  • Multi-module onboarding programmes
  • Course units delivered over several weeks
  • Product certification tracks with a required order

In depth

What playlists is for

After creating interactive videos in Mindstamp, it can be handy to create a playlist for your audience. A playlist allows you to add multiple videos that are all related. This is extremely useful for training courses where you have videos all on the same topic or promotional material all related to the same product. Another great feature of the playlist page is the ability to share your content with a single link.

Once you have created videos all relevant to one topic, the easiest way to share your content is through a playlist. You don’t have to share 10 or 20 links to individual videos, with the playlist page, you can share one link to all the videos in your playlist. This will allow quick access to your videos that are easy to manage.

Once you have created a playlist and added videos to it, you can then use Mindstamp’s built in functionality to search through transcripts, captions, chapters, and interactions. This will empower your audience to quickly find the information they need in your videos.

In your Mindstamp account, select More > Playlists Page. From there you can name your playlists, add a description, and select all the videos you would like to add to your playlist. Once your series is created, you can edit the videos or the series page, search your content, and share your content.

When creating promotional videos, it is important to ensure that your viewers are seeing the most relevant information possible. By using a playlist, you can group together your videos and share them in a way that allows your audience to see all of your offerings related to a particular topic or service. The use of playlists can be the differentiating factor between your promotions and your competitors.

Educational videos are a common Mindstamp use-case. When a teacher is creating a group of videos, it is easiest to add the videos to the playlist to allow for their students to quickly and easily find information that is relevant to them. Series provide a way for creators to organize their videos in a way that makes sense.

What gets measured

Every use of it is reported

Reported per viewer
Every use of this interaction is recorded against the person, not the play.
Placed to the second
Attached to the timecode it sits on, so results map to the moment that produced them.
On video you already have
Layered on the existing file — the original is never re-encoded or replaced.

Questions

What teams ask about playlists

Can learners resume where they stopped?

Yes — progress is tracked across the playlist rather than resetting each video.

Can each video still branch?

Yes. A playlist sets the sequence; individual videos keep their own interactions and paths.
