Clips¶
Browse and play scene markers (clips) from your Stash library. Clips are short segments of scenes, typically created around tags or specific moments.
Browsing Clips¶
Location: Navigation menu → Clips
The Clips page shows all clips synced from your Stash library. Each clip card displays:
- Animated preview thumbnail (if generated in Stash)
- Clip title, or its tag's name when it has none
- Duration badge
- Tag indicators
- "No preview" badge for ungenerated clips
View Modes¶
Clips support three view modes, selectable from the toolbar:
- Grid (default) — Card-based layout with animated previews on hover
- Wall — Compact masonry layout
- Table — Sortable table with configurable columns
All view modes support adjustable density controls.
Filtering Clips¶
Click + Filter in the bar under the search box (or press f) to add a filter; the filters in use show as chips, and you can pin the ones you use most. On a phone, Filters opens a sheet instead. See Filters. Available filters:
| Filter | Description |
|---|---|
| Clip Tags | Tags applied directly to the clip. Supports ANY / ALL / NONE, include or exclude per tag, and Include sub-tags |
| Scene Tags | Tags on the parent scene, with the same choices |
| Performers | Performers in the parent scene. Supports ANY / ALL / NONE and include or exclude per performer |
| Studio | Studio of the parent scene: pick several, include or exclude each, and Include sub-studios. A scene with no studio is kept by an exclusion |
| Scenes | Clips of the scenes you pick, found by their title |
| Has Preview | Filter by generation status: "With preview only" (the default, so a clip without a preview does not list until you change it), "Without preview only", or "All clips" |
| Duration (seconds) | How long the clip lasts: a minimum, a maximum, or both. A clip with no end time never matches |
| Created Date, Updated Date | A start date, an end date, or both; both ends are included, in your device's time zone |
Filters are cumulative (AND logic). Use the search box to find a clip by the name its card shows. Include and exclude, sub-tags and sub-studios work as on every list: see Browse and Display. A saved clip filter from an earlier version, and an address with a clip filter in it, keep working.
Sorting¶
| Sort Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Created At (default) | When the clip was created in Stash |
| Title | Alphabetical by clip title, or by its tag's name when it has no title, as the card shows it |
| Position in Scene | By start time within the scene |
| Duration | By clip length |
| Random | Randomized order (consistent across pages) |
All sorts support ascending and descending direction.
Playing Clips¶
Clicking a clip navigates to the parent scene and automatically seeks to the clip's start position. The video begins playing from that point.
Quick Preview
On desktop, hover over a clip card to see an animated preview without navigating away. Clips without generated previews show a static screenshot instead.
Markers on the Timeline¶
The player's timeline shows a dot for every marker of the scene, placed at its start time on every source. A hollow dot is a marker whose preview has not been generated yet; it still seeks to its start when you click it.
Markers Figure on a Tag Page¶
A tag's page shows a Markers figure: the clips you can see with that tag. Click it to open this list filtered to the tag. The figure counts clips with a generated preview, as this page's default does.
Clips Without Previews¶
Some clips may show a "No preview" badge. This means the clip marker exists in Stash but the preview video hasn't been generated yet. The Clips page lists only clips with a preview until you set Has Preview to "All clips" or "Without preview only". Use that to find these clips, then generate their previews in Stash with the "Generate" task.
