I read it as a physical list. For example if I have a list of TV shows that I have on a hard drive, I personally put down placeholders (which is where I thought he was plugging his box account and randomly putting place holders.
s01x01 - episode title.txt
s01x02 - episode title.txt
s01x03 - episode title.txt
s01x04 - episode title.txt
When I get the file (from say KODI or Youtube), I replace the txt file with the movie files
s01x01 - On Leather Wings.MP4
s01x02 - Christmas With The Joker.MP4
s01x03 - Nothing To Fear.MP4
s01x04 - The Last Laugh.MP4

What I thought he was doing (which is why I was confused) was make a dummy file for say "REQ: GBA - Bubble Ghost.jpg" in his box account. I mean, nothing is wrong with that, I just never thought of doing that. seems much more manageable for some peoples list, and would be greatly helpful when someone hands over raw scans
