Bookmark is a navigation tool that helps users instantly access key sections of a video. The following two bookmark features provide users with a convenient viewing experience.
- Official bookmarks (table of contents): Bookmarks that the customer sets in advance at key points in the content and provides to all users.
- My bookmarks: A feature that allows users to freely save and manage personally important points.
Instead of manual configuration, you can use AI technology to automatically generate key chapters in a video.

Bookmark types
Kollus VOD provides two types of bookmark features based on the managing party and operational purpose.
| Category | Official bookmarks | My bookmarks |
|---|---|---|
| Managed by | Customer | User |
| Use cases | Providing lecture table of contents, highlighting key scenes | Noting important points |
| Access permissions | Users can view only (read-only) | Users can create, edit, and delete |
| Visibility | All users | Only the user who created the bookmark |
Benefits of the bookmark feature
- Efficient information navigation: Even in long videos, you can instantly jump to a specific point containing the information you need.
- Structured learning: Bookmarks in a table of contents format allow users to grasp the overall flow of content at a glance and provide a structured viewing experience.
- Personalized viewing: Users can record important sections themselves and build their own learning notes within the player.
How to configure Official bookmarks
- Click the title of the target content in Kollus VOD console > [Library] or [Channel].
- Play the preview player on the [Overview] tab.
- Pause the video at the scene where you want to register a bookmark.
- Click [Settings (gear icon)] at the bottom of the player.
- Click [Bookmark (star icon)] in the settings panel.
- Click [Add (+)] at the top to register the timestamp of the current point in the bookmark list.
- Click the edit icon of the registered item to enter the bookmark content (e.g., Chapter 1 Overview) or delete the bookmark.
You can register bookmarks in the same way from the preview window that appears when you click the poster in the library list.
Activate the My bookmarks feature
For users to create bookmarks themselves, the system must be able to identify individual users.
- User identification: The user's ID (
client_user_id) must be included in the JWT(JSON Web Token) Payload used to generate the Playback URL. - Data integration: Data generated in the player can be synchronized in real time with the customer's database(DB). This allows viewing data to be managed collectively in external platforms such as LMS.
