Channel Drill Down
This page displays the Channel Drill Down data. The default period shows a reporting period of one day, with sheets for Channel Name, Total Distinct Devices, Total Views, Overall QoE, Total Hours Consumed, Average Session Length (Mins), Buffering Ratio, Buffering Rate, Average Bitrate, Average Framedrops, Average Time to Start Playout, Average Bitrate Downgrades, and Playout Start Times over the selected time period.
Below these, the report contains a Playout Start Times chart, Error Percentage chart, Top 10 Errors Vs Previous Period chart, and Top/Worst Performing Device Models chart over the selected time period.
Search, filter and Date selection
The top-right of the page shows a Channel Name search box and OS Type drop-down menu showing available OS types.
Next to this is a Date drop-down menu, with preset time intervals for Today, Yesterday, Last 7 days, Last 14 days, and Last 30 days. Selecting one of these options then clicking Apply loads the data.
Users can also select Custom Range, which causes the From and To date fields to appear below, and allows users to specify any time interval (provided dates are not in the future). Users must then click Apply to load the data.
A Back button is also shown at the top right of this page. Clicking it returns the user to the Overview page.
