Irrespective of the kind of content you upload on your video streaming platform (eLearning, media & entertainment, health & fitness), there is always a scope for more! Along with the main content, you may want to upload additional content to support the primary content.
The additional content can be in any form, starting from multiple trailers & teasers, Music Videos, BTS videos, Bloopers, or simply PDFs that complement the videos you have uploaded.
These bonus contents are very useful when it comes to downloading lyrics of songs, getting to know exercises or yoga postures in detail, or even recipes for cooking. A short descriptive guide in the form of audio, video, or PDF can help users to understand the content better.
With Muvi One’s Bonus Content feature, you can upload these additional Bonus Content very easily with your primary content. We support Bonus Content in multiple formats, including video, audio, and pdf files. And, you can add unlimited Bonus Content along with your primary content simultaneously. You can even view, edit and add additional add-on content later, whenever needed, from our asset library.
The Add-On Media Asset feature is divided into two different formats, depending on your platform type:
In this blog, we will discuss the major characteristics of this feature for both formats, discuss the advantages of this feature, and will take you on a quick ride of our Bonus Content library and content upload form. So, let’s begin!
Muvi One allows it’s audio/video streaming customers to add multiple Bonus Content to their video and audio content. This content can be added either while uploading the main content, or anytime later. In fact, you can reuse the Bonus Content as they get stored in the add-on library.
Let’s take you through the major features of Muvi One’s Bonus Content Module
Specially designed with a user-friendly approach, Muvi One’s Bonus Content module lets you add multiple Bonus Content in multiple formats with separate metadata for each of them.
You can add more than one asset at a time. You can choose the exact number of Bonus Content that you want to add with any content, decide their category and format, and then upload them simultaneously at a single time.
And if you feel that more Bonus Content is needed, you can add them later too, from the content editing page.
You can upload videos, audio files, and even PDFs as Bonus Content. Muvi supports multiple file formats so that you can enjoy more flexibility while choosing your Bonus Content.
The following file formats are supported.
For video content: mp4, wmv, mov, flv, vob, m4v, mkv, avi, 3gp, mpg, mxf
For audio content: mp3, wav, aac, aiff, m4a, m4b, m4p, dvf, raw, wma, webm, flac, ogg, mpeg
For documents: pdf
We know that your users can separately search for your add-on content. That is why we allow you to add separate metadata for each add-on content. You can add separate label names for your add-on content which will help in enhanced visibility and search appearance of your Bonus Content.
You can decide how your Bonus Content will appear on your front end. Decide where they will be placed and how they will appear on top of your user’s screen. Use Muvi One Visual Designer for additional customization on the look and feel of your Bonus Content.
Bonus Content has multiple benefits for audio and video streaming businesses. Let’s take you through some of them.
Using Bonus Content, you can add multiple teasers and trailers for your video content. Add teasers and trailers one by one after certain intervals of time, to build up for the mega release.
Behind The Scenes (BTS) videos bring a special sense of togetherness to your users. You can add as many BTS videos as you want, showing the different aspects like the places where your team traveled while making the videos, your technical team members, success parties, special interviews, celebrations, and a lot more!
Many people want to hum around while watching music videos, and that is why, adding lyrics docs with such videos is always helpful.
While watching cooking videos, almost all of us like to keep a note of the ingredients and cooking process. So, why not make the task simpler for your viewers, by adding recipes in a Pdf doc, which they can view and download?
For Yoga videos too, having a PDF file with all the yoga poses really helps. Your users can use the PDF for self-practice in the future.
When it comes to eLearning, the video lecture is only one part of it. There are assessments, chapter notes, lecture summaries, and additional study materials that complete the entire eLearning process.
With Muvi One’s eLearning module, you can have all of them. We have developed special sets of Bonus Content that supplement all your eLearning needs. Let’s take you through some of its major features.
With Bonus Content in Muvi One’s eLearning module, you can add multiple Bonus Content like lecture notes, assignments, and study materials along with your main course content, hence offering more value to your customers.
Just like audio/video platforms, our eLearning module lets you add multiple Bonus Content at a time too. Right at the time of releasing the original video lessons, you can add multiple Bonus Content. You can add more Bonus Content at a later stage too!
We support multiple file formats for Bonus Content in our eLearning module too. The following file formats are supported:

An eLearning course usually consists of multiple levels of content. You can have multiple subjects under one course, and multiple chapters under one subject. Understanding your necessity, Muvi One allows you to add additional Bonus Content for all levels of content. In means, you can add Bonus Content for courses, subjects, chapters, and all other levels present.

You can add question papers and assignments with each lecture video so that your students can check their understanding after listening to the lecture.
Sometimes, you may not include some topics in the main lecture, but your students might be interested in them. So, you can attach additional resources and videos with your main lecture videos, which will cover the additional topics.
Chapter notes are very important for students. You can add them very easily with every chapter as bonus content. It will help your students revise the chapter notes whenever they need or want to.
