Cinema8 generates secure share links or embed codes you can post directly into Discord channels, DMs, or private groups. These links stream high-quality video from Cinema8’s platform without compression, ensuring your community enjoys a premium viewing experience while you maintain control over privacy and access.

Role-based access can be managed by pairing Discord’s permission settings with Cinema8’s privacy controls. You can share specific links only in role-restricted channels and use Cinema8’s domain restrictions, passwords, or expiry links to ensure only the intended audience can view the content.

Cinema8’s hosting delivers adaptive streaming via a global CDN, so videos maintain their quality regardless of file size. This avoids the compression that occurs with native Discord uploads, ensuring crisp playback for all viewers on any device.

Cinema8’s analytics dashboard tracks key metrics like watch time, completion rates, and engagement hotspots, even when videos are shared in Discord. These insights help you understand viewer behaviour and optimise future community content for better interaction.

Cinema8 lets you host a mix of public clips and private videos for your Discord community. Public content can be used to attract new members, while private videos remain exclusive to specific roles or channels through secure privacy settings.
