Interestingly, the playlist Set Display Name feature
edits a local alias, or ‘playlist nickname’. It does not
actually change the name of the file on your hard
drive. Roll the mouse over the icon display name to
see the true filename.

The playlist of the two DDRs and Sounds offer an additional audio feature:

The icons of audio files (or clips with embedded audio) will display a small
configure (gear) icon at lower right. Click this icon, or use the matching menu item
(Set Audio Level), to pop up a small level slider (Figure 186).

The first frame of a clip is seldom the ideal image to serve as its representative icon.
Especially in sports, the first frame of many clips can be virtually indistinguishable
from one another; the most distinctive visual often comes nearer the end of a
highlight clip. Often too, clips may start out with black.

You can personally select the icon for each clip in the DDR by selecting Use Frame As
Thumbnail
. You can even select different icons for a single clip that is used more
than once.

For added consistency and speed of selection, these personalized icons are also used
in the Media Browser.
