Lists of {itemName.plural}, and also individual {itemName.plural} themselves, can be displayed in different views. Both for lists and for {itemName.plural}, you'll find the menu to switch between views in the toolbar near the top of the screen.
as List | A table with fully configurable columns |
as Grid | A grid of icons (posters or stills) |
with Timelines | A list of icons with timelines |
with Clips | A list of icons with clips |
as Clips | A grid of video clips that match your current query |

A timeline is a visual signature of a {itemName.singular}. It provides an instant overview of what is happening in a {itemName.singular}, and can be used for navigation. You can switch between different types of timelines: anti-alias (average colors), slit-scan (see below), keyframes (full frames) and waveform (audio).
Some views don't show lists of {itemName.plural}, but lists of video clips — for example clips matching your query, or related to a specific location on a map. These clips can be sorted by various properties (like saturation, see below), and each clip is a video player. The video will load once you've selected it, and you can then simply click to play. If you doubleclick, you'll get to the {itemName.singular} itself, and its video player will be at the very position of the clip.
