Create a view
A view is a page in your service that displays several collections like your start page. This gives you the opportunity to create more pages with different collections. You could, for example, create a view for drama or documentaries and then add only collections that fit these genres.
If you set up your start page for the first time you can use our template view which will automatically add the essentials to the page. The essentials include:
- Featured collection
- Continue watching
- My watchlist
- Most popular
- Newest Releases
- Our Recommendations
- Popular Genres
You can still edit, remove and sort the collections later on.

- Name your view
- Decide if it should be a view for VoD (curated collection) or Live TV (EPG channel view)
- Follow the guide and decide how the collection will be sorted
- "Visibility" and "Filter by user entitlements" decides for which users the view will be shown
- In the last step, you can preview the view
- If you are satisfied with your selection then save it. Otherwise, you can go back to the process and change your selection.
