  • Playlists - Films Video content can be added to playlists from search results or the media pages.  Options exist to add new playlists directly to folders or create a new folder at the time you save a new playlist.  Options to move content into one of these folders and view all content in a particular folder exists as well.
  • Favorites - Films Video content can be added to favorites from search results or the media pages.  Favorites support folder organization as well.  Options exist to add new favorites directly to folders or create a new folder at the time you save a new favorite.  Options to move content into one of these folders and view all content in a particular folder exists as well.
  • Folders - Folders are universal across the entire My Content section, instead of only being visible to the specific section they were created in.  Options to move content into one of these folders and view all content in a particular folder exist inside each section as well.
  • Saved Searches - The My Saved Searches section allows anyone with a user account to save their search results.  Basic searches using the top search bar, and compound searches created from within advanced search are all supported.  Saving a search also allows you to add notes about that search that will appear at the top of the search page when accessed from within My Saved Searches.  Options exist to add new searches directly to folders or create a new folder at the time you save a new search. Options to move content into one of these folders and view all content in a particular folder exists as well.
  • Custom Segments - The My Custom Segments section allows anyone who is logged in with a user account to create and save their own custom segments.  Custom segments provide another level of customization, allowing you to create the perfect segment that best meets your needs.  When you create a custom segment, you are creating a virtual segment using in and out points of the video.  These segments do not alter the original video and are not downloadable.  Segments that are created are visible on the segments tab of any video they were originally created from, at the bottom of the segments tab.
