- From the sidebar on the left, click Hosting.
- At the top of the page, click the Video hosting tab.
- Click a video from the Embeds list to open it.
- Click the Analytics tab.
- View the analytics:
- Total visits - the number of times the embedded player loaded on a page
- Total plays - the number of times a viewer actually started to play the embedded recording
- Play rate - the total plays divided by total visits, shown as a percentage
- Average playtime - the average amount of time watched per play
- Average engagement - the average percentage of the recording that viewers watched
- Top country - the country where the recording was played the most
- Visits - total visits plotted over the selected time range
- Plays - total plays plotted over the selected time range
- Locations - total plays per location based on the selected time range
- Engagement - a retention curve across the recording's timeline. At each point it shows what share of viewers are still watching; where the line falls is where people dropped off, and spikes mean a section people re-watched.
- Top countries - audience broken down by country, as a percentage of plays
Good to know
- Embed analytics only start counting from when you create the embed.
- Deleting the original recording in Riverside does not break a live embed. Existing embeds keep playing.
