| Although I don't reference the videos very often, I find it difficult to find those I would like to consider viewing. The search function works sometimes fairly well, but there are other times when I find it difficult to locate what I am searching for.
Is it just me, or could the video selection be improved? I'd like to see some type of category to select from. It would be nice to select videos dealing with bait/lure modification, bait (sucker) rigging, sport shows, lure videos, etc.
I'm not sure what is needed. I just think there could be some improvements to make it easier to select and view the videos.
What do others think? | |

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | The Videos are uploaded to another website; upload.outdoorsfirst.com and displayed upon select OFM websites depending on content.. There are categories including Ice fishing, freshwater fishing, and all fishing, species as in Muskie, Walleye, Bass, Panfish, Northern Pike, and 'all fish'. Since we don't create and upload many of the videos available here, it's up to the folks creating the video and uploading it to place each so a simple search brings it up.
Keywords in the title and short description of the video content will also bring up a category of sorts. Try searching Weagle, for example. If the video is a Muskie specific clip, it will display on MuskieFIRST and the Upload site, but not Bass, Ice, Whitetails, or WalleyeFIRST.
http://upload.outdoorsfirst.com/categories.asp
http://upload.outdoorsfirst.com/channels.asp
Each 'Director' can create a category and even a channel using by login and by labeling content in the Title.
We won't be breaking Muskie category videos down into subcategories based upon content anytime in the near future. I'd suggest refining your search, and searching from upload.outdoorsfirst.com. | |

| Thanks for the explaining the situation. I merely saw "Sort videos by:" and thought something else might be helpful other than searching by key words.
Now, I realize the "Sort videos by:" are useful after performing a search.
Since I'm searching from this site, I never thought other sites would be ever be included or uploaded in my searches.
When I search by "custom", I get 1 page of videos. But when I search by "custom baits" I get 4 pages. Interesting. Like I said it may just be me. I'll have to improve my searches.
The videos are great to have and search.
Thanks for the info.
