Movie Library

The Movie Library is your personal film and series log. Track what you’ve watched, rate it, and maintain a watchlist — all in one place.

Add entries to your library in two ways:

  • Manual entry — fill in the details yourself
  • Search / import — search TMDB by title, or paste an IMDb/TMDB URL to auto-fill movie data

Paste a movie URL (or search by title) and solyto pulls in the title, year, cover image, and other metadata automatically. No manual typing needed — just paste the link and confirm.

See Importing Data for details.

Each movie entry includes:

FieldDescription
titleMovie or series title
categoryMovie or series
rating1–5 stars
publication_yearYear of release
coverPoster or still image
linkURL (IMDb, TMDB, streaming service, etc.)
wishlistMark as want-to-watch
started_atDate you started watching
finished_atDate you finished watching
tagsColored tags for filtering
genresOne or more movie genres

The movie library has its own genre system. Add genres that match your taste — action, documentary, horror, drama, or anything else. Assign multiple genres to any movie.

Manage genres from the library settings. You can add, rename, and remove genres at any time.

View trailers for movies in your library. Trailers are fetched from TMDB (The Movie Database) automatically when available. Click the trailer button on any movie’s detail page to watch.

solyto checks TMDB for new screen releases and can notify you when something worth knowing about comes out. Notifications are configurable per channel — Telegram, email, or push. See Notifications for setup.

Browse your movie collection in List or Cards views. Search by title (press Ctrl+F), and filter by genre, rating, or wishlist.
