• The title is pre-filled from the video name, but you can edit it if necessary.
• You can also add a tag to your video.
• The video's duration will be added automatically once the video has been processed.

• You have the option to enable or disable a watermark, and you can add a description for your video. 

• You can enable the captions for your video by adding a .srt file. 
• Note : If you have enabled the caption toggle and have not uploaded the .srt file the video will not be playable. Please make sure to enable this option only if you have the .srt file.

• You can also choose whether your video should autoplay or not. 

• You can also choose when the video should be available and whether to restrict video consumption.

• The video's thumbnail is selected automatically from the video. You can change it by clicking on the Choose File button.

• The video will take some time to be processed. Once done, the thumbnail and the video duration will be fetched automatically.

• Click on Save Course to save your changes. You can notify your users about the new video via mobile or web push notifications. Click on Notify to send these notifications.

 Note : If the video is being uploaded on the Graphy server, the system encrypts the uploaded video and that takes time upto 1x to 2x time of the video length.
