Z-Keeper · Identify — 1 of 6
Identify is the dedicated bench for deciding what each file is — every ruling cements into the Master Catalog. It's one of three roads to cement: approving the Zidoo's matches during a Sync is the second, and the right-click Matching tools on nearly every screen — a rematch, a poster, a metadata edit — are the third, cementing one change at a time. Matching against TMDB is one tool on this bench; the bench is bigger.
No Zidoo required — the whole bench works before your first player arrives.

The file tree is the Master Catalog's domain: the union of the video files listed by every Zidoo device you've defined — not any one device's view. Three scopes keep runs cheap: Still to do for the new arrivals, All files for a fresh start, Only checked files for surgery.
Uncheck all clears every file — filtered or not. Check-all respects the search.
Z-Keeper · Identify — 3 of 6
The filename becomes a guessed title and year; TMDB returns candidates; each is scored against both. The best score decides the bucket — and honesty about weak scores is the whole point.
Posters and backdrops download for every match — the art is ready before you review.
