Q: My use case is: I have a list of 25 youtube channels.
I want to create a tv channel, where I don't add any video of my own. All i do, is give the user a single platform to view any of these 25 youtube channels, some of them streaming live and some of them having pre-recorded content. Will viloud suffice this requirement? Also, since I don't need hosting of any video, would one code be sufficient?

May 15, 2024A: Hi hr39,
You can get unlimited channels from 3 codes. In this way you can create these 25 on-demand channels from Youtube playlists. When you add the videos to the Youtube playlists (from Youtube), you will see them automatically in the Viloud channel (the last 200 added to the playlist will be showed).
Does this work for you?
Best,
Joan
Hi hr39,
Understood the use case!
Here you have two options: add youtube videos separately to the content, then create a linear or on-demand channel and add that youtube content to the channel (scheduling it or as a playlist). The second option is to create an on-demand channel from a Youtube playlist (check https://help.viloud.tv/article/22-create-a-youtube-playlist-channel), note that in this last option only the last 200 videos of your playlist will be showed.
About youtube live content at the moment you can’t add a Youtube live link to linear channels. This is because live content has no fixed duration that allows to be programmed on a schedule.
In this use case with all the content from Youtube, with 1 code you will get to add unlimited Youtube video links and create until 5 channels. If the number of channels is important for you, you’ll get unlimited channels with 3 codes.
Best,
Joan
I fear the solutions you have mentioned don't work for my use case. Bcos:
a) My content comes from 25 different channels; which have atleast 25 playlists, where as option 2 allows only one playlist
b) The content of playlist of these channels is dynamic - so everyday new videos are being added. Ofcourse i can't do the addition of content on daily basis - so option 1 is ruled out as well.
Please let me know if I have mis-understood the solution options or any other way to add meet my requirement.
