Content owners select Manage : Dashboard (or My Videos) and click the video's thumbnail.
Administrators select Administer : Content Management : Videos - Edit and click View for the desired video.

TIP: Administrators can filter video names by recording date, channel, or both. Some filters also include more detailed options: clicking This year displays additional filters for any month in the current year in which a minimum of one recording was created.
