Video Autocue

Seamless, continuous video playback

Written by Support

The Video Autocue feature creates a smooth, uninterrupted viewing experience by automatically playing videos one after another within a programme carousel.


What is Video Autocue?

Video Autocue is a feature designed to improve user engagement by automatically advancing to the next video once the current one has finished playing.

Instead of manually selecting each video, users can sit back and let content play continuously.


How does Video Autocue work?

When enabled on a programme page:

  • A video plays as normal

  • Once it ends, a short countdown begins

  • The next video in the carousel automatically starts

This continues until the user reaches the end of the carousel.


What will users experience?

With Video Autocue active, users can:

  • Watch videos back-to-back without interruption

  • Experience content in the exact order it appears in the carousel

  • Enjoy a more “lean-back” viewing experience


How does filtering affect Autocue?

Video Autocue respects any filters applied to the carousel:

  • If a user filters by Season, only videos within that season will play

  • Autocue will not pull in videos outside of the selected filter

This ensures playback always stays relevant to the user’s selection.


Why use Video Autocue?

Video Autocue helps you:

  • Increase video watch time and engagement

  • Create a more immersive viewing experience

  • Encourage users to watch full series or collections

  • Reduce friction between videos
