06.7 · Media & Downloads

How far people watch, and what they take with them.

Per-video milestone counts and completion rates, next to per-file download counts. One table answers "do people finish the video", the other "which asset earns its place".

What it shows

Media and Downloads section with video and download KPIs
Video milestones and file downloads, side by side.

Four KPIs (Video Starts, Video Completion Rate, Download Events, Download Session Rate), a Media events over time trend, the Video performance table, and the Download breakdown table.

What the numbers mean

Metric / columnDefinition
Video StartsTimes a video was started (fires on each play).
25% / 50% / 75% / 90%Sessions that watched at least that share of this video.
Completes / Completion %A video counts as completed at the 90% milestone; the rate is completes divided by starts.
Download EventsTotal file downloads.
File / TypeDownloads grouped per file, with the file extension.
Session Rate% of all sessions in the window that started this video, or downloaded this file.

How the filters apply

The section respects the global filters, and both tables are clickable: select a video or a file to narrow the section; click again to clear.

Documented exception: the Video performance table shows full-window values when a global dimension filter is active, because its per-video data is not loaded client-side for regrouping. A caveat note appears above the table whenever that happens.

How to implement it

Downloads are automatic: links ending in .pdf, .csv, .xlsx, .zip, .mp4, and a dozen more fire a download event, and data-measr-download-name reports a friendly name instead of the raw path. Video is manual, because every player has its own events:

Measr.trackVideo(videoName, milestone, videoSeconds);
// milestone: '0%', '25%', '50%', '75%', '90%', '100%'

Ready-to-paste reference implementations for HTML5 <video>, the YouTube iframe API, and Vimeo Player.js are linked from tracking modules.
