The review view

WirdThe synchronisiertreview view is your workplace. Here you go through the inventory, filter it and select what is to be cleaned up. You reach it through All files or directly through Files without a reference.

The review view of Media Organizer as a grid with thumbnails, status indicators and filters
The review view as a grid: preview, dimensions, size and status at a glance.

Grid or table

The button Table or Grid switches the presentation:

    The grid shows thumbnails — good for recognising images. The table shows more entries per screen and sorts better — good for large collections.

    The status indicators

    Status Meaning Referenced At least one occurrence found. The file is in use. Without a reference No occurrence found. A candidate — check the evidence before you act. In quarantine Already moved, restorable at any time.

    In addition, every tile shows dimensions and file size. Sorting by size descending is a good start: the largest unreferenced files bring the most space.

      Search path — full-text search over the file path. Filter options — narrow down by status, media type and folder. A folder filter includes subfolders. Sorting — by size, name or modification date, among others. Reset — restores the initial state if you have filtered yourself into a corner.

      Selection across pages

      The selection is kept server-side. So you can filter, page through, keep selecting — the files marked earlier stay selected. That matters when you are picking out specific files from several hundred.

      With all on this page / none you mark the current page at once.

      The coverage notice

      If "incomplete coverage" appears at the top, at least one installed extension is not covered by a vetted profile yet. Media Organizer then cannot rule out that this extension uses media files.

      The consequence: deleting for good is blocked. Quarantine and restoring stay possible — both are reversible after all. That is not a fault but the extension knowing its own limits.

      Export

      With Export CSV or Export JSON you take the inventory out — useful for agreeing things with clients or for a second opinion before anything happens. The export respects the filters currently set.
