Description
AzureClipStorage currently lists clips by getting all files where the file name starts with a certain string:
If there are two directories named "something/xyz" and "something/xyz_abc", then this will cause the script to also enumerate files from the second directory when looking for files from the first (which causes the script to crash). While easy to work around, this seems unintended, and should probably be changed.

Research direction
Start in src/azure_clip_storage.py at the linked code around line 66 and inspect how clip files are selected by name prefix. Verify the behavior with directories named "something/xyz" and "something/xyz_abc"; done means files from the longer directory are excluded when listing clips for the shorter one.
