Search & Filters

The filter sidebar on the Library page lets you narrow down your clips across multiple dimensions. Filters combine with AND logic across sections (e.g. tag AND drive AND date range) and OR logic within a section (e.g. any of the selected drives).

Filename Search

Type in the search bar at the top to filter clips by filename. The search is case-insensitive and matches any substring.

Press ⌘F from anywhere in the app to focus the search bar.

Tag Filters

The Tags section lists your tags sorted by clip count. Click a tag to include it — only clips with that tag will appear. Select multiple tags to apply AND logic (clips must have all selected tags).

Use the mini search input at the top of the section to find tags quickly. By default only the top 5 tags are shown; click Show all to see the rest.

Exclusion

Click the ban icon next to a tag to exclude it. Excluded tags are shown with a red background and strikethrough. Clips with any excluded tag are hidden.

You can combine inclusion and exclusion: "show clips tagged interview but NOT tagged draft".

Collection Filters

Select one or more collections to show only clips in those collections (OR logic — clips in any selected collection appear).

• Exclude a collection using the ban icon to hide its clips
• Not in any collection — a special filter that shows only unorganised clips

Drive Filters

Filter by which drive(s) a clip's files are on. Each drive shows a connection indicator (green/grey) and clip count. Disconnected drives can still be used as filters.

Exclusion works the same way — ban a drive to hide clips stored on it.

Date Filmed

Filter by the original recording date embedded in file metadata.

Quick presets:

• Last 7 days
• Last 30 days
• Last year

Custom range: toggle the custom date inputs to set a specific from/to range.

Duration

Filter by clip length:

Range	Duration
< 10 sec	0 – 10 seconds
10s – 1 min	10 – 60 seconds
1 – 5 min	1 – 5 minutes
> 5 min	5+ minutes

Select multiple ranges (OR logic).

Resolution

Filter by video resolution:

• 4K (3840 × 2160)
• 1080p (1920 × 1080)
• 720p (1280 × 720)
• Other (anything else)

Select multiple (OR logic).

Recent

Toggle between:

• Recently Viewed — clips you opened most recently
• Recently Indexed — clips added to your library most recently

Import Batch

Filter by the last import batch to quickly review clips from your most recent import.

Active Filters Bar

Applied filters are shown as chips above the media grid. Each chip displays the filter type and value with color coding:

Color	Filter Type
Default	Tags (with tag color dot)
Red	Excluded tags, collections, or drives
Blue	Filename search
Amber	Drive filters
Violet	Duration ranges
Emerald	Resolution filters

Click the × on any chip to remove that filter. Use Clear all to reset everything.

Saved Presets

Save your current filter combination as a preset for one-click access later:

1. Set up the filters you want
2. Click Save Preset in the Saved Presets section
3. Give it a name

You can save up to 10 presets. Presets can be renamed or deleted. Presets persist across sessions.

Select All

When filters are active, the Select All checkbox selects all clips matching the current filter criteria. This is useful for batch operations like tagging or sending to Resolve.
