TLH, TSL, Session Duration, and Active sessions are some of the metrics you will find in your email reports. The different metrics are explained below:


TLH (Total Listening Hours) 

Session duration active more than 60 seconds intersected with the selected interval for reporting.


The TLH is not based on a formula but rather a count on the relevant date.



TSL (Time Spent Listening)

Session duration crossing the selected interval for reporting.


Session Duration

The total duration of a session that started in the selected interval for reporting.


Active session duration

The total duration of a session active for more than 60 seconds that started in the selected interval for reporting.

Below is an example to illustrate how these are working and what values are expected:


If we take these 3 listener session examples and from them determine the TLH, TLS, SS, and AS in a particular day, for the time period between 12:00 to 12:15:


Session NameStart TimeEnd TimeTotal Duration
session_A11:58:0012:05:007 minutes
session_B12:03:0012:03:1010 seconds
session_C12:05:0012:20:0015 minutes

     

For TLH :

From session_A we only count 5 minutes, because that’s the intersected time with our interval ( 12:00 to 12:15)

From session_B we don’t count anything because the duration is lower than 60 seconds.

From session_C we only count 10 minutes, because that’s the intersected time with our interval ( 12:00 to 12:15)


For TSL:

From session_A we count 5 minutes

From session_B we count 10 seconds

From session_C we count 10 minutes


For Session Duration:

From session_A we don’t count anything because it didn’t start in the selected interval 12:00 and 12:15

From session_B we count 10 seconds

From session_C we count 15 minutes


For Active session duration:

From session_A we don’t count anything ( outside of the selected interval)

From session_B we don’t count anything because it is under 60 seconds

From session_C we count 15 minutes
