How do you measure video downloads?
Video Downloads
As with audio downloads, a video download counts when a listener plays your episode for more than 60 seconds. This will show as an IAB-certified download on the Stats page of your account.
But if a listener plays your video at any point, we'll count it as a video download instead of an audio download. We don't need 60 seconds of video play to track a video download; even if they play just one second of the video during the listening session, it will show on your video stats page.

Where do I see video downloads?
You'll find your video downloads on your Stats page on both the Podcast Overview and Video tabs.
The Overview tab shows a breakdown of both audio and video downloads for your latest episode, your last 10 episodes, and all episodes combined.
The Video tab shows just those video downloads, with breakdowns by episode and by app.
