UnifyDrive UT2 is not just another NAS—it’s a gateway to more engaging and immersive movie nights. At first glance, it delivers what you would expect: reliable storage, fast backups, and efficient data management. But for film lovers, UnifyDrive UT2 hides a different kind of magic: the power to transform an ordinary collection of movies into an interactive, personalized movie library.

The surprising part? A lot of users stop at the basics—simple movie management and playback—without realizing there are hidden small features waiting to be discovered. These often-ignored small features can enhance the viewing experience, making it easier, richer, and significantly more enjoyable. Unlock them, and every movie night feels fresh, smarter, and uniquely yours.

Overlooked Features in Movie Library

UnifyDrive UT2 brings a new level of intelligence to movie management. With this function, users can skip tedious intros, share collections securely, and organize libraries with smart controls. These features work together to create a seamless and enjoyable movie experience.

Skip Intros & Endings

Few things disrupt a movie night faster than being stuck with long intros or endless scrolling credits. With UnifyDrive UT2’s Skip Feature, users can jump directly into the main content in seconds. Perfect for binge-watching TV shows or revisiting favorite scenes, this function saves time and keeps the focus on the story.

How to enable Skip Intros & Endings:

1. Please Go to the “Movie” section and open the title you’re watching.

2. In the episode details page, select “Action” → “Skip Intro.” From there, you can set the exact duration to skip for both the intro and the ending.

This function makes watching multiple episodes faster. Users spend less time waiting and more time enjoying their favorite scenes. 

Share with Family & Friends

Sharing movies should be easy and secure. UnifyDrive UT2 lets users grant direct access to selected folders or files. There is no need for third-party apps or cloud services. Friends and family can stream instantly, while the owner keeps control.

How to share your movie library:

1. Please simply click the "Three-Dot" inside the movie or TV show to open the details page, and you’ll be able to Share instantly. 

2. Just like in the file manager, you can set rules such as Encryption and Expiration Dates for your share. 

3. Once created,it generates a Direct Access Link that others can use to open and view the shared content right away. If needed, you can also adjust the share settings later—such as Stopping, Canceling, or Clearing a share—giving you full control at any time.

With this function, users enjoy convenient sharing and strong privacy. The process is simple, and security stays tight.

Sub-Account Permissions

Personalized access makes movie libraries smarter. UnifyDrive UT2 allows users to create sub-accounts for family members or groups. Each account gets its own permissions. Parents can restrict content for kids, keeping their content safe and well organized, while movie fans can maintain their own collections separately without overlap.

This function ensures both security and order, making the viewing experience more tailored and enjoyable for everyone.

How to set up sub-account permissions:

1. Please go to the "Movie". Users can Create A New Category, such as “Cartoons,” inside Movie Library and add all related content to it. 

2. Once created, the category can be set as a “Shared Category,” allowing the entire collection to be shared at once.

3. Finally, simply choose which accounts should have access—by checking the child’s sub-account, parents can ensure kids only see the content intended for them. It’s that simple.
