2. Movie name: The associated NFO file name is read first. If there is no match, the one obtained by scraping is used. If neither is available, the content associated filename is used.
3. Video metadata: rating, year, country/region, genre, rating, duration.
4. File: Displays the video file associated with the movie. When two different video files in the media library are recognised as the same movie, the two video files will be combined in the same movie details. This area allows you to switch between playing different versions of the movie file.

Episode management
After adding a media library and scanning media files in UGOS Pro, you may encounter the following problem:
Some episodes (especially variety shows) are not recognised correctly or are recognised as the wrong content.
Some episodes are not fully recognised, resulting in missing episodes or incorrect sequence.
The "Episode management" function in the Media Centre allows you to manually correct episodes or variety shows in the media library and adjust their order. For example, you can merge episode extras into the target episode and set it to play as the last episode.
For more details, please refer to:"How do I use "Episode Management" to correct episodes or variety shows that have not been correctly recognised by the media library?"
Download/delete source files
To delete a source file, hover over the individual poster card and click the "..." button. Select "Delete source video" from the options that pop up.
To download a film, hover the mouse over an individual poster card, click the "..." button and select "Download" from the options that pop up. This will download the video to your local device, so you can watch it without an internet connection.
Please note:

Edit metadata
If the information on the poster scraped from the media library is incomplete or incorrect, you can manually edit and modify the video information. The video information that can be modified includes: uploading a poster, adding or modifying the movie name, release date, country/region, genre, rating, cast and crew information, and movie synopsis.

How can I easily create a movie cover wall with local images?
In the Movie Centre, you can set exclusive cover and background images for movies and TV episodes with simple local image management, even if TMDb or intelligent recognition is not enabled. This feature lowers the threshold for creating your own poster wall and is suitable for short episodes or the management of movie and TV resources without .nfo files.
