# Media Assets App

**Media Assets** is your library of files already uploaded to the CMS: images, videos, audio and documents. Adding files from Media Assets saves you uploading the same file again, and you can reuse a file in any playlist.

To organize your library (folders, tags and so on), see [Media Assets](https://easysignage.com/help/media-assets/digital-signage-media-assets/) .

## Add Files from Media Assets to a Playlist

1.  Open the playlist, then click the layer. See [Playlist Media Management](https://easysignage.com/help/playlists/digital-signage-media/) .
2.  If the layer is empty, the content apps open. If it already has media, click **Add New**.
3.  Click **Media Assets**.

4.  Tick the files you want. Open a folder to see the files in it.
    -   To find files faster, filter by type (images, videos, audio or web), choose **Tags**, or type in **Search media…**.
    -   Switch between the grid and the list view with the buttons next to **Tags**.
5.  Click **Add Selected**. The files are added to the layer and fitted to its size.
6.  Click **Publish changes of this playlist** to send them to your screens.
