In addition to adding individual video or multimedia file content to your site, you can incorporate multimedia playlists stored in Brightcove or Youtube libraries directly into CommonSpot pages.

Your site may have some or all channels available. Administrators create new channels through Site Admin - Multimedia Services - Channels.
Pick the target channel.

To begin the upload process, click to highlight the target channel, as shown above for the Brightcove Default Channel, then click Next. A Select Subsite dialog displays for the new multimedia playlist.
