Stream Channel: Organize/Categorize Videos
On a channel homepage, I need the ability to create video categories, as defined by me, the channel owner - possible? Alternatively, the ability to sort by Name would be an acceptable work-around.

Nov 27, 2017Nick Hasselblad - We don't have a way to organize videos within channels. However if you created a group, then you can create channels under that group for further organization of the videos.
Today on a channel we let a user viewing the channel sort by Trending (views/likes/comments in last few weeks), published date, total views, total likes. If we added video name to that drop down would that help? Or are you looking for a feature where you as the channel owner can pick which sort option is selected by default when a user views your channel?

Marc Mroz Hi Marc, it would be great if as the channel owner we could set the default sort by field to by date, that is so that we can ensure that users will see the latest videos that are uploaded automatically by default, otherwise they may not know to sort them by date, and we will lose viewers. Please could MS add this feature?
