Push method for movies

I want to add a push function for new movies input on my playlist. I think it's through playlist.js and I tried different ways but it doesn't work out. Please help to advise a way.

playlist.js

function Playlist() {
  this.songs = [];
  this.nowPlayingIndex = 0;
}

Playlist.prototype.add = function(song, movie) {
  this.songs.push(song, movie);
};

IIRC this is based out of the prototype inheritance section of Object Oriented JavaScript.

If this is the case then you should be able to just pass in one parameter to your add method. For clarity I would change it to media.

Playlist.prototype.add = function(media) {
  this.songs.push(media);
}

I would assume what you want to push into your array is an object, having a properties of id, typeof media and link to media.

just a thought
