Using this option, you can automatically delete from this list those movies which have already been added to the catalog. It's a very useful function if you have scanned your drive for movies before.

At that stage the program will fill in some fields - movie duration, resolution, and codec info. The easiest one is to use the menu 'Movie - Add from File'. Now we need to add movies to our catalog.
