You can use the Account Settings page in the Brightcove Studio to manage global settings for your Brightcove account.
Note that to access the Account Settings page, you must be a Brightcove Studio user with the Admin role.
To access the Account Settings page:
- Sign in to the Brightcove Studio.
- Click the Account Settings link at the top right, under the navigation bar.
Depending on your Brightcove account plan, the Account Settings page includes up to five sections:
Publishing Settings
If you are an Admin user, you can use the Account Settings page in the Brightcove Studio to:
- Set the default viral player for your account. This is the player that is used to play a video when a viewer uses the "Get code" feature in a Brightcove player.
- Set a custom domain name for your account. You can use a custom domain name to replace link.brightcove.com in the RSS feeds for your players as well as in the links to your players (for example, when a viewer clicks "get link" in your player).
Analytics
- Enable or disable collection of Analytics information for your videos. Read more.
- Select which time zone your reports are generated in. The default is Pacific Time (GMT -8:00). Note that this time zone setting affects reports on the Reports page and does not affect data available in the Analytics module.
