Movies

The Movies section is where you manage movie titles in Scryer — the movie facet. It covers the movie library view, import work that needs a decision, and movie-specific settings.

What This Section Is For

Use Movies to review titles, adjust monitoring state, resolve import work, or tune defaults that apply only to the movie facet. It’s the fastest way to answer whether a movie is present, missing, awaiting import follow-up, or using the wrong facet-level policy.

How To Reach It

Open Movies in the left sidebar. The visible child pages are:

Library for the movie overview.
Import when there’s manual import work and your account can resolve it.
Settings with Library, General, Quality, Renaming, and Routing pages.

Most day-to-day work starts in Library, moves into Import only when placement needs a decision, and uses Settings when the same correction should apply to future movie titles too.

Who Can See It

You can use the catalog pages in this section with the view library permission on one or more libraries. The Import page requires resolveImports, and you’ll see the facet settings pages in the sidebar with manageCatalogSettings.

Primary Controls And Actions

Browse and filter movie titles.
Search for a title to add to the movie library.
Open title detail pages.
Review monitored state, local availability, and assigned defaults together.
Change monitoring state for one or more titles.
Review movie import work when Scryer needs your decision.
Configure movie-specific library, naming, quality, and routing behavior.

Typical Workflows

Add a movie title, choose its library root and quality profile, then let Scryer track it.
Review the movie library after a scan and fix titles with missing or stale local state.
Resolve manual import rows when Scryer can’t confidently match or place a completed local item.
Adjust movie naming or routing defaults before expanding the library.
Revisit Wanted after a profile or routing change to confirm movie state moved as expected.
