Stream Channel: Organize/Categorize Videos
Dave Kartunen and Brad Millner - By default we sort videos in a channel by "Trending." This uses an algorithm to determine which videos are popular in the last few weeks against views, likes, comments, etc. A user could pick a different sort order for the channel when they are viewing it. But as I said above we don't have a feature for owner of channels to pick a different sort order by default.
I am an integrationist at a school, and when teachers load videos for class, the students do not notice the "All Videos" tab, though right there, and they assume the latest video has not been uploaded. Teachers like having more control. There really are very few options available in videos for sorting, etc.
We would also like to be able to give permissions in Channels to whole groups. If a class is working on a project, it is very time-consuming to have to load each student individually, especially when we have synced groups to use.
