Using Search Sorters
The Truveo video search service provides a variety of ways to sort the search results returned for a given query. By default, video search results are sorted according to Truveo's ranking algorithm, called vRank. This algorithm will typically assign the highest rank to the most recent, most relevant and most popular videos. If you would prefer to sort search results differently, a different sorting scheme can be specified by including a sorter, for example 'sort:mostRecent', in your search query. Only one sorter can be used per search query expression. If multiple sorters are included in a search query, all but the first sorter will be ignored. A complete listing of the available sorters is shown below.
sort:vrank
Sorts results by vRank; videos with the highest vRank are listed first. If no sorter is specified, this is the default behavior.
sort:mostRecent
Sorts results by recency, with the most recent videos listed first.
sort:mostRelevant
Sorts results by relevance, where videos that most closely match the query text are listed first.
sort:topFavorites
Sorts results based on how many times they have been selected as a user favorite; videos selected the most are listed first.
sort:highestRated
Sorts results based on user rating; videos with the highest rating are listed first.
sort:mostPopular
Sorts results by popularity, as measured by the total number of views since the video was indexed. The most popular videos are listed first.
sort:mostPopularNow
Sorts results by popularity, as measured by the number of views in the last 15 minutes. The most popular videos are listed first.
sort:mostPopularThisHour
Sorts results by popularity, as measured by the number of views in the last hour. The most popular videos are listed first.
