AJA provides tools for reviewing clips and creating playlists of clips. These clip playlists
can be managed on the web browser Playlists screen, which includes a default All Clips
playlist showing all clips on the Ki Pro Quad unit.
The default state of the Playlists is to list All Clips available. All Clips represents all of the
recordings made on the Ki Pro Quad or valid files transferred to the Ki Pro Quad.

You can cue up a clip quickly for review by simply double-clicking the clip in the list. Note
that once you've double-clicked a clip to select it, it will be highlighted in blue in the list
and the first frame of video from that clip will appear on the output of the Ki Pro. Quad.
To play back the clip, simply open the Transport page of the web UI and begin playback
with the Play button. Or you can use the "mini-player" from within the playlist. You can
also quickly scan material by setting the Media>Play Media>All selection so that as you
highlight clips for review, they will continue playing out of the Ki Pro outputs.
In the Playlists portion of the web UI, there is a "+" symbol and a "–" symbol above the
lists. The "+" symbol can be used to add a playlist. Simply click on this symbol and, when
prompted, enter a name for the playlist you wish to create.
To add clips to a playlist, select a blue highlighted clip from the All Clips list and click and
drag the clip onto the name of the playlist you created. Note that when you select a clip
and click and drag it, a filmstrip icon will appear. If you do not see this icon, then you have
not selected a clip. You can tell that a clip will be added to a playlist because the list you
drag the clip to will be highlighted in green and the filmstrip icon will appear with a "+"
symbol on the left side. When you release the mouse, the clip will be added to the
playlist. You may select additional clips using the same method and add them to the
playlist.
To move a number of clips to a playlist at once, use the column with the checkmark and
tick the checkboxes of the clips prior to performing the click and drag to the list.
To review your playlist, click on the list in the Playlists area of the web UI.
