One Tile, Every Copy: Using the Version Picker

The dedupe you can see — one tile, every copy behind it.

When the same movie or show exists more than once across your sources, Klave folds every copy into a single tile. The version picker is how you choose between them — without ever hunting through duplicates.

01

Why there is only one tile

Content-level dedupe is Klave’s core trick. The 4K and the 1080p, the English and the French audio, the copy on your NAS and the stream from your provider — Klave recognizes they are the same title and merges them into one entry. Your library shows the title once, cleanly.

Tap a movie once and watch it — the choosing is optional.
02

Switch in a tap

Open any title and look for the version control. It steps through three choices, in order:

  • Source — which of your sources the copy comes from, each tagged by provenance.
  • Language — the audio or dub you want, when a title offers more than one.
  • Quality — 4K, 1080p, or whatever resolutions your sources carry.
It remembers
Your resume point binds to the title, not the copy — so if you switch source or quality partway through, you pick up exactly where you left off.
03

No dead ends

If one copy is offline or slow, switch to another in a tap and keep watching. Nothing is hidden and nothing is lost — every copy your sources contain is one tap away, quietly, behind a single tile.
