How to reorder media in a Media Gallery, channel, or personal playlist.

Resolution

Teachers, TAs, and Designers can reorder media in a Media Gallery playlist. Only Managers can reorder media in a channel playlist.

Determine the order the media is displayed and played in the media player.

1. Navigate to the Edit Playlist Details page

• Canvas: Media Gallery > Channel Actions  > Edit > Playlists tab > pencil icon next to the playlist
• MiVideo Mediaspace:
  • for a personal playlist: user drop-down menu > My Playlists > pencil icon under the playlist
  • for a channel playlist: user drop-down menu > My Channels > edit pencil icon > Playlists tab > pencil icon next to the playlist

2. In the Playlist list in the right column, select the double lines next to the media item and drag the media to the desired position in the list. Notice that the order number changes to reflect the new position
3. Click Save

Tip: To move any media quickly to the top or bottom of the list, click the triple dots next to the media item and select Move to Bottom or Move to Top.
