'das Video' and 'der Videoclip' both refer to moving images that you can watch. 'Video' is the general word and can mean many kinds of recordings, for example a learning video, a family video, or a long recording. 'Videoclip' more often means a short film, often with music or as a short excerpt on the internet or television. The words can be confused because a Videoclip is also a video. But not every video is a Videoclip. If you are speaking generally, use 'Video'. If it is short, edited, or closely connected to music, 'Videoclip' fits better.
