Vid Settings Templates

Manage Video Player Settings at Scale

Written by Aldo Peña
Updated today

Templates allow you to save, reuse, and apply video player settings across your videos — so everything stays consistent without manual updates.
​

Instead of configuring each video individually, you can create a template once and apply it anywhere. This helps you maintain consistent branding, roll out updates faster, and manage large video libraries with ease.
​

Templates can include settings such as player theme, controls, seek bar behavior, fullscreen options, and more. They can be applied to a single video or multiple videos at once.

How It Works

Create a Template

  1. Open any video’s Settings page

  2. Click the “…” menu

  3. Select Save as Template

  4. Add a name and description, then save

Apply a Template (Single Video)

  1. Open a video’s Settings

  2. Click “…” → Load Settings

  3. Select your template

  4. The player updates instantly

Apply a Template (Multiple Videos)

  1. Go to My Vids

  2. Select multiple videos or a folder

  3. Click Apply Template

  4. Choose your template

  5. Decide to:

    • Republish immediately, or

    • Save as draft and publish later

Benefits

  • Save Time: Configure your player once and apply it across your entire library.

  • Maintain Consistency: Ensure all videos follow the same branding and setup.

  • Faster Updates: Roll out changes across multiple videos in just a few clicks.

  • Safer Changes: Apply updates as drafts and publish only when ready.

  • Better Team Workflows: Keep everyone aligned with shared templates.

Important Note:

Templates do not include/save the following settings:

  • Thumbnails,

  • CTAs,

  • PlayGates,

  • Tags,

  • E-commerce Integration and

  • Exit thumbnails

Additional Notes and Limitations:

  • Only users with Edit Video permissions can create, update, or apply templates.

  • Templates are account-specific and not shared across accounts.

  • Applying a template will overwrite matching player settings on the selected videos.

  • Updating a template does not automatically update previously applied videos — reapply it to reflect changes.

  • Bulk updates on large sets (100+ videos) may take a few moments to process.

  • Locked or deleted videos will not update and may return an error.
