In the video browsing screen you can browse the items of your Videos library group. The screen is displayed in the stack view when you choose the Videos library entry in the navigation tree on the left.
The stacks are the entry points into the detailed browsing view. With a double-click on any stack you can switch into the detailed browsing view. The detailed browsing view is displayed with focus on the first item. All other items of the selected stack are listed below, a scrollbar on the right screen margin enables you to scroll the detailed browsing view. Another double-click on a single item in the detailed browsing view displays the Playback screen. Playback is started automatically.
If you place the mouse pointer on an item, a preview is shown. It will fade out when you move the mouse pointer away.
If you hover the mouse pointer over an item, a check box is displayed in the upper left corner. Select the check box to select the item. This way, you can make a selection. It is possible to select over several stack groups, too. With a click on another item (like clicking the thumbnail itself instead of the check box) the selection will be removed and you can start a new sample. The preselection may be useful if you want to start an instant slide show that plays back only selective video sequences.
