Performance Chart

After your title goes live on a channel, your Performance Chart will regularly update with reports and earnings. Reports and Earnings are updated according to the Schedule.

  • Reports: A channel’s estimate of how much your title earned over a certain time period.
  • Earnings: Money sent from a channel to Filmhub for your title.

Reports appear on the chart in gray. When earnings arrive they immediately appear on the chart in green. They are overlaid or replace the previous reports as estimates are now actualized.

Reports and earnings frequently differ. Actual payments received from channels often don’t match the initial reports due to bank transfer fees, refunds, foreign conversion fees, audits, and adjustments. 


Reports and earnings in your dashboard already reflect Filmhub’s revenue split.

Filtering the Chart

Dropdown menus at the top of the Performance page allow you to filter the Chart by multiple items at the same time:

  • Title(s): Type at least two characters to select a title to filter.
  • Channel(s): Type at least two characters to select a channel to filter.
  • Countries: Select a country to filter from the dropdown menu.
    • Some channels do not report country-level details. These are marked Not Reported.
  • Genre: Select a genre to filter by from the dropdown menu.
  • Time Unit: Select Monthly or Quarterly. The chart’s time units adjust accordingly
  • Date Range: Clicking the Custom Date Range button will drop down a menu with From and To dates. Select your date range to filter by dates.

For example, if I wanted to see only Tears of Steel’s performance on The Roku Channel in July 2023, I could select the appropriate filters.

    Performance rankings

    Performance rankings are exclusively available to our Plus and Pro clients.

    4_performance_rankings

    Performance rankings are Percentile snapshots of your performance compared to the wider Filmhub catalog. Hover your cursor over the bar graph on any of the performance tables to see how your title ranks compared to the rest of our library. You can use performance ranking with any of the filters applied, however if there is too small a sample size, it will not display a result.

    Performance rankings are displayed using percentiles, a relative measure useful for comparisons. If your film is in the 50th percentile, it made more money than 50 percent of titles and less than 50 percent of titles. If it’s in the 90th percentile, it made more money than 90% of titles in our catalog.

    Remember, film revenues do not follow an even distribution. Just as some films may not generate any licenses or revenue, the upper limit of the 99th percentile is practically infinite. One film in the 99th percentile could make millions more than another film that is still in the 99th percentile overall. Read more about how much money your film may make in our Guide to Monetization.
