When are EmuMovies Gameplay (Video Snap) videos used?

When I download videos from EmuMovies there are two main types, Theme videos and Gameplay videos.  I assume the theme videos are the ones used by themes.  When are the gameplay (Video Snap) videos used?  I.e. how do you access them?  I'm only using MAME if that matters.

No, It all depends on your video priority setting in LB.

In LB go to >Tolls >Options and you will see a priorities are for image priorities and video priority. You can tick the video types you want used and then you can move those up or down to put them in priority order. The theme will show the top priority 1st and if a game is missing that video type it will show the next priority.

It's not even specific to themes. 

Within themes, different views may work best with one or the other, so you'll have to try and pick which view you are using.

So a lot of themes/views have "extra" (for a lack of better words), dynamic theme UI elements so you probably wouldn't want a theme video video which has similar UI elements embedded in the video as well.
