Importing Playlists

If a Media Gallery you are importing from has more than 10 playlists, then no playlists will be imported. You will see this message for a moment after clicking Import if this is the case: 

A message stating that playlists were not imported.

When this occurs, the videos will still be individually imported, but the organization of the videos into playlists will not be present in the new Media Gallery.

To have playlists imported from a Media Gallery with more than 10 playlists, contact Digital Learning Technologies at [email protected], and we can assist with this transfer.
