Clips & Playlists Tab
Once you or your Observers have created Clips after your session has finished processing, your clips will be available for you on the Clips & Playlists tab on the Sessions page of your dscout Live mission.
Tab Overview
On the page you'll also see the following:
- Search bar to search clips by name or transcript keywords
- Clips that you, other moderators, and observers have made in the Live mission. By default, clips are displayed alphabetically by scout name first, clip name second. You have the option to sort clips by:
- All - all clips that have been made in the Live mission; or
- My Clips - all clips that have been made by you personally
- Creator - choose a moderator or observer from the drop-down list to see the clips that individual person made
- Playlists Panel that will populate with selected clips and Playlists

Creating a playlist
To make your playlist, you’ll start by selecting the clips you’re interested in compiling and editing. Note that observers will also have access to creating playlists.
- Select one or more clips to save as a new playlist or add to an existing playlist.
- Click on any clip to preview it before adding to a playlist.
- Note: Any edits made to clips in the playlist editor won't affect the original clip. However, if you make updates to the original clip those updates will be reflected in the playlist.
