Everything here is irrelevant with five screens and load-bearing with two hundred.
Search on the screens list
The search box matches screen names and label names. Typing a label name lists every screen carrying it, which is the fastest way to check that a label was applied where you meant.
It does not match notes, locations, or content. Searching for a room you wrote in the notes field will find nothing.
The status cards
The four cards above the screens list, Online, Pending sync, Offline, and Disabled, are also filters. Clicking one narrows the list to those screens.
They overlap on purpose: a screen can be online and pending sync, and will be counted in both.
Sorting that actually helps
Sorting by Status puts online screens first, then the rest ordered by how recently they were seen. The screen that has been dark longest lands at the bottom, which is usually the one to deal with first.
Sorting by Content status groups everything that is not showing what it should, regardless of whether it is online.
The notification bell
Not everything gets an alert. Content that fails to process, for example, appears in the notification bell rather than being pushed to email or Slack, and it names the specific item and links straight to it.
Worth glancing at after a bulk upload, because a video that failed to encode is invisible everywhere else until someone notices a gap in a rotation.
Deep links
Each settings tab and each screen and playlist has its own URL, so a link to a specific screen’s Details tab works when pasted into a ticket or a chat. That beats “go to Screens, then find the one called…” in every support conversation.
What there is no search for
There is no cross-workspace search. If you belong to several workspaces you search each one separately, because workspaces are isolated by design. See Workspaces.
