Navigation Panel
This is where you can jump between channels, your files and files shared with you. The navigation panel can be opened and closed with the hamburger menu (icon with 3 horizontal lines in the top left corner of the interface).
Content Panel

Dynamic Panel
This panel will open to display information relating to the content being explored. Including listing the interactive content in the touchcast, file information or who your content has been shared with.
To open a video, you must select the video thumbnail and this will launch the video player view (which automatically closes the navigation and dynamic panels).

Under the video player is a place to make comments on the video that can be viewed by other portal members.
