Video and live streaming statistics

Statistics data is collected only when you use the standard player. The Reports page shows information about videos and live streams: viewers, their browsers and operating systems, geography, popular videos (only for the Video page), as well as URLs of pages that host a player with your video. The data is updated every five minutes and stored for one year. You can check reports for all videos and live streams or only for a single one. To see overall statistics: 1. In the Gcore Customer Portal, navigate to Streaming > Reports. 2. Choose the relevant subsection: Built-in player: VOD or Built-in player: Live. 2. Select the preferred interval (24 hours, 48 hours, week, or month) and dates. 3. Choose one or more parameters: Browsers, Geography, Hosts, OS, or Viewers.
