The advantages of the Linking with Core for Movies and

central shared data in Core for Movies

*Automatic Updates: * When our content managers or other users update the movie information in _Core for
Movies (e.g. to add a better cover image, to improve data, or to fix a typo), you will immediately see those
changes in CLZ Cloud.
No need to “Update Movies Automatically”. Your collection in CLZ Cloud always automatically shows the
latest version of the data and cover art.

It’s fast: Sharing the factual movie data means that its retrieval can be optimized (e.g. by caching),
resulting in a smooth experience when browsing your CLZ Cloud movie collection. Also, syncing up from
your desktop/mobile app v is very fast, because only your personal data and a single ID value needs to be
uploaded to your CLZ Cloud.

It’s efficient: Shared factual movie data is only stored once, which means our servers are not clogged by
duplicate copies of data and images (that are all the same for every user). This also makes it possible for
our systems to make daily backups of your movie collection data.

What if a movie is not in Core for Movies?

This shouldn’t happen too often, but here’s what you can do to handle this situation and at the same time
help us improve Core for Movies:

Good to know: You can upload and keep unlinked movies in your CLZ Cloud. Unlinked items will show up
online with just some basic information and will include your personal data, including the cover image that
you may have added yourself to the unlinked movie.

TIP: For movies not available in our central database, make sure to include the barcode in your unlinked
entry, so that our Content Team can spot popular “un-linked” movies and add them to the central database.
As soon as they do, your entry will automatically become a full entry with all movie information.

Also, if you do have full information for that movie you can right click it in your collection and report it to
Core to add/make correction in Core for Movies.
