I know there are links to a lot of videos scattered throughout the forum and I'll be searching for them as time warrants. Is there a single thread which asks for videos? If not, would you please consider posting your links here?

I had an Eastern & Oriental Catholicism group on YouTube where I had quite a collection of videos, but YouTube disbanded the groups feature and the list disappeared with it. My own focus is to highlight Eastern and Oriental Catholics and I know there are many people here who would be interested in seeing Orthodox videos as well. To make it easiest on everyone to find what they're looking for, would you please place the video you're linking into each of the following three categories?

The category choices are a compromise on words in trying to be broad to cover all the possibilities, so please accept my own inadequacy in coming up with better choices. If it can fit in two sections in the same category, choose the section higher up the list.

1.
A. CATHOLIC - Promotes Eastern or Oriental Catholicism.
B. ORTHODOX - Promotes Eastern or Oriental Orthodoxy.
C. BOTH - Directly/specifically/explicitly promotes both Eastern or Oriental Catholicism and Orthodoxy.
D. UNKNOWN - It's Eastern or Oriental Christianity, but it is not evident if it is Catholicism or Orthodoxy.
E. OTHER - It does not promote Eastern or Oriental Catholicism or Orthodoxy but is of overwhelming interest to Eastern or Oriental Christians.

2.
I. WORSHIP - the Church's liturgy, the Church's prayers
II. LEARNING - talks, demonstrations, lectures, interviews, homilies, commentary
III. MUSIC - Religious music, Christian hymns, (not liturgical chant)
IV. ENTERTAINMENT - Dramatic re-enactments, plays, non-liturgical dancing, fiction
V. PERSONAL - Eastern or Oriental Christian person but content, while appropriate, isn't particularly religious-oriented
VI. OTHER - It doesn't fit in a topic above.

3.
Name the national church/ethnic group if possible (i.e. Syro-Malabar, Greek Orthodox).

St. Elias has a YouTube channel which has tons of video of services (portions of Divine Liturgy, Matins, Vespers, Compline, etc.) as well as some talks/interviews discussing some topics (one of my favorites is the one that included an explanation of church architecture and its symbolism).

I would classify this as 1A although many of what you can find may also apply to Orthodoxy.
