# Curator Understanding

Understanding is a picture of what's actually in your library - independent of what anyone's asked.

For what people asked and how well the library performed, see [Curator Insights](https://support.sardius.media/knowledge-base/curator-insights). (The full distinction between the two is covered in [What is Curator?](https://support.sardius.media/knowledge-base/whatiscurator)

Use this page to see how a typical service is built, what topics you actually cover, and which scripture and songs show up in the videos.

> **Why this page exists**
>
> So you can see the library the way Curator does — not as a list of files, as teaching, worship, verses, and songs. That's how you know what people can find when they ask.

## This library

How much has been understood, and how an hour is built.

_A typical hour: teaching vs singing vs announcements, and the rest._

**How services are shaped** — where the hour goes, and what kinds of time fill it.

| Avg min          | Typical length of a video in this library.                                                        |
| Dominant segment | The largest share of time — Performance, Teaching, and so on. The label is the kind, not a grade. |

The stacked bar is a typical hour: teaching vs singing vs announcements, and the rest. Use it to see whether the library is mostly message, mostly music, or a mix. Service shape needs Deep Understanding data.

## What it's about

Topics that Curator extracted from this library. Not a list of visitor questions — that is [Curator Insights](https://support.sardius.media/knowledge-base/curator-insights).

The scatter is four quadrants: more joyful to the right, heavier toward the bottom. Most taught is the same topics ranked by time. Hover a dot or a ranked row to see the cluster.

## Sources

Text and songs extracted from these videos. Shown when the library actually has them.

![understanding sources](https://support.sardius.media/kb-media/4d3923fa29ed1ce1823e.png?width=654)

**Scripture.** How many citations from each book. OT and NT grids. Hover a book for the count and a sample ref. Darker means more citations.

This only shows when Bible references are on and verses actually appear in the videos. It's what was said — not a stamp that every citation is perfect.

**Songs.** What was sung, and how often. Header tiles: songs, times sung, artists.

- **Song** — one row per title, with artist when known, and times sung.
- **Artist** — grouped. Expand a name to see that artist's songs. Rows with no artist sit under No artist.
- **suggested** — the title was inferred. Worth a glance.
- **contradicted** — the title doesn't match what was sung. Treat it as a flag.

## When it looks empty

If Discover has not processed the feed yet, you get honest empty copy — not a crash and not "coming soon". Processing lives on the feed / AI Discover side. Come back when videos have been understood.

Service shape, scripture, and songs only appear when those things exist in the library. If a band is missing, that content hasn't been understood yet — not that the page is broken.
