How Reflux recognises titles

From ordinary file and folder names: title, year, season and episode numbers, and the edition or quality where the name says. Episodes in a folder with no show name become a show named after the folder. Disc folders (BDMV, VIDEO_TS) are not played yet.

Where details and artwork come from

Your servers describe their titles: summaries, genres, ratings, runtimes, dates, cast, posters, and episode stills. Files bring their own artwork where it sits beside them, and TMDB fills in what neither has: Reflux sends it a title and year, nothing about you. A title with no artwork gets a designed look of its own rather than a blank. "Online metadata & artwork" under Sources turns the lookups off.

Identify

When Reflux has a title wrong, open its page and choose Identify: search, pick the right one, and Reflux remembers it through rescans, keeping your progress, favourites, and chosen version. Let Reflux identify it undoes it.

Nothing changes on your disk

Your library, corrections, and choices are Reflux's own. It never renames, moves, tags, or deletes your files.
