Overview
Effective organization of your multimedia content starts before the season begins and continues throughout each match. Strategic tagging, efficient use of the Moments Editor, and consistent naming conventions will save you significant time and make end-of-season compilations much easier to create.
This article covers practical strategies for organizing highlights, creating moments from match recordings, and maintaining a searchable content library.

Create Tags Before the Season Starts
Set up your tag structure before your first match. Having tags ready means you can apply them immediately during or after matches when events are fresh in your mind. Some recommended tags to create include: 1. Goal of the Week, 2. Save of the Week, 3. Play of the Week, 4. Goal of the Season, and 5. Championship Highlights.
Creating these tags early makes end-of-season compilations much easier - you'll already have all your best moments tagged and ready to compile.
Apply Tags During or After Matches
Tag highlights while events are still fresh in your mind. The best times to tag are: 1. During the match as highlights are generated, 2. Immediately after the match ends, and 3. During halftime or breaks in play.
The longer you wait, the harder it becomes to remember which moments deserve which tags. Tagging during or immediately after matches ensures you capture the context and significance of each highlight.
Use the Moments Editor Efficiently
When creating moments from match recordings, work efficiently by adjusting playback speed. Use 2x or 4x speed to scan through match recordings quickly, then slow down to normal speed when you find a moment you want to clip. Create moments for anything that didn't trigger an automatic highlight.
Good candidates to capture as moments include: 1. Near misses that didn't result in goals, 2. Great saves that weren't logged as match events, 3. Crowd reactions, 4. Celebrations or interactions, and 5. Any content that would work well on social media but wasn't tied to official match events.
Moments are perfect for social media content that isn't tied to official match events captured by the LiveScore app.

Use Consistent Naming Conventions
Establish a naming system for all your multimedia content and stick to it throughout the season. The recommended naming format is: Competition_Team_Date_EventType. For example: LondonLeague_Eagles_2024-03-15_Goal.
Consistent naming becomes critical when managing many highlights, compilations, and recordings across multiple competitions. A clear naming system makes searching and filtering much faster.
Organize Your Video Library
Maintain a clean and manageable content library with these practices: 1. Assign all content to competitions immediately after upload, 2. Archive old content regularly to keep your library manageable, 3. Use the search function, which searches both names and descriptions, and 4. Add descriptions to important content for easier searching later.
The search function searches both file names and descriptions, so taking time to add descriptions to key content pays off when you need to find specific clips months later.
Match Recording Storage Strategy
Match recordings are large files, so it's important to manage storage effectively. Download important matches to local storage, archive recordings you don't need immediate access to, and create moments from recordings, then archive the full recording if you only need specific clips.
This approach keeps your active library focused on content you're actively using while preserving important full matches for future reference.
