How to Import Video Courses from Baidu Drive

Many parents keep hundreds of early-learning animations, teacher lesson files, and picture-book audio in Baidu Drive. "Anxin Learn" connects deeply to the Baidu Drive official platform — with download-free instant streaming (0 tablet storage used) and an exclusive feature: one-tap packaging of 2-level folder courses into a complete collection.

This guide covers organizing your drive, the two-step course import, and answers on authorization and data safety.

[!TIP] 30-second drive import quick-start

  • Stream, don't download: even a 50GB course series plays on demand — 0 storage used on your phone or tablet;
  • Smart 2-level packaging: enter the main course folder, tick all chapter subfolders, tap [[Import]] — the app builds one complete collection automatically;
  • Official read-only link: authorization runs on Baidu's official secure page — this app never sees your password and can't modify/delete anything;
  • Originals stay safe: deleting a video entry or clearing pacing in the app never touches the real files in your drive.

1. Three Reassuring Highlights

  • :icon(video): Stream instantly, 0 storage used
    Online streaming with small buffers. Even hundreds of HD episodes never download to the device — 0 of your tablet's precious storage is used, and playback starts on demand.
  • :icon(shield): Official direct link, read-only & safe
    Sign-in happens entirely on Baidu's official secure page; the app never touches your account password. The permission requested is limited to "browse files and fetch video streams" — no permission to modify or delete anything in your drive. Playback connects directly to Baidu's official cloud, never through third-party servers.
  • :icon(book): Exclusive: 2-level folder → one collection
    Solves the classic headache of "so many chapters, so many scattered videos". Tick the subfolders and the app reorganizes everything into one unified collection keeping the original teaching order.

2. Import Scenarios, Step by Step

2.1 Basic: import one video or one folder

  1. Open Add: tap [[Add Video]] → choose [[Baidu Drive]];
  2. Browse: open the folder containing your videos;
  3. Tick videos: select the video files you want (multi-select supported);
  4. Import in seconds: tap the [[Import]] button in the top-right — the selected videos join your child's library instantly.

2.2 The flagship: package a whole multi-chapter course automatically

For large structured courses with chapters and units (Oxford Reading Tree, complete primary math, phonics levels 1–6), follow this two-step rule:

Example: the classic 2-level course structure in your drive

【Main Course Folder】Grade 3 Math/
   ├── 【Chapter 1】Multiplication & Division/
   │     ├── 01-Fundamentals.mp4
   │     └── 02-Practice.mp4
   ├── 【Chapter 2】Shapes & Geometry/
   │     ├── 01-Angles.mp4
   │     └── 02-Perimeter.mp4
   └── 【Chapter 3】Word Problems/
         └── 01-Classic Problems.mp4

The 2-step packaging SOP:

  1. Enter the outermost main folder: open the main course folder (e.g. "Grade 3 Math");
  2. Tick all chapter subfolders: check every subfolder (Chapter 1, 2, 3…);
  3. Tap import: tap the [[Import]] button in the top-right!

[!TIP] What you get The app scans inside the ticked subfolders and merges all episodes into one complete collection named "Grade 3 Math", keeping the original chapter order — no manual collection-building needed.

[!WARNING] Nesting pitfalls

  • Only the ticked level is scanned: only the videos directly inside the ticked subfolders are extracted; deeper "grandchild" folders are ignored;
  • Avoid non-video folders: don't tick empty folders or folders containing only PDF handouts or exercise sheets.

3. Membership, Quality & File Safety (FAQ)

Q: Do I need Baidu Drive SVIP?

No — regular accounts work fully.

  • Regular accounts: playback at 480P — plenty sharp and smooth for kids' animation and lesson slides on a tablet screen;
  • SVIP members: get Baidu's dedicated fast channel — faster large-file opening, original quality, and better evening-peak loading.

Q: Which audio/video formats are supported?

All common formats:
MP4, MKV, AVI, MOV, FLV, WMV, WebM, TS, MP3, M4A, and more. If you have a compressed archive (.zip / .rar), extract the media files in the official Baidu Drive app first, then import.

Q: If I delete a video in Anxin Learn, does it disappear from my drive?

Absolutely not! The app only stores a playback index and path locally. Deleting entries, removing pacing, or clearing lists never affects the real files in your Baidu Drive.

Q: What happens if I move or rename files in Baidu Drive?

If an original file is deleted or moved elsewhere, the app's old path can't locate it and playback shows "file not found". Keep imported resources in a fixed folder and avoid frequent moves.

4. Multiple Accounts & Revoking Access

  • Multi-account binding & one-tap switch: have several drive accounts (say Mom's and Dad's)? Tap the avatar in the top-right of the file browser to switch — each account's data is fully isolated;
  • How to fully revoke access:
    • In this app: on the drive browser, tap the avatar in the top-right → choose [[Sign Out]];
    • On Baidu's side: open the Baidu Drive app → [[Me]] → [[Settings]] → [[Account & Security]] → [[Authorized Apps]], find "Anxin Learn" and revoke it.
