videoduplicatefinder VS Ditto

Step 1: download the daily build, which in my case, would be App-osx-arm64.tar.gz since I have an M1. I just unzipped it to /Downloads/VDF

I've been trying for a bit now to get Video Duplicate Finder from GitHub to run without success.

Ooh this looks nice. And might replace at least 2 tools. For video comparison I currently use Video Duplicate Finder which has a few features this doesn't. Under settings it lets you check Ignore White Pixels and Ignore Black Pixels which helps lower false positives on videos with lots of white/black backgrounds or keyframes. There's an option to compare horizontally flipped videos, and a few more that are a bit more esoteric for me to understand. But it might be worth peeking at how they accomplish some of it.

Here's the link: https://github.com/0x90d/videoduplicatefinder. The directions to install seem minimal. Please explain for someone who isn't familiar with terminal.

I have used this with great success https://github.com/0x90d/videoduplicatefinder

I've used Video Duplicate Finder for this before. (Yes, it works on images, supposedly). It's pretty buggy but it does the job.

I use Video Duplicate Finder in a docker container on my media server. It shows you at a glance which version of a file has the longest duration, highest frame rate, bitrate, resolution, file size, etc.

For videos though I used something different. https://github.com/0x90d/videoduplicatefinder - its not quite as polished as some software but the results more than make up for it.

The most famous is the clipboard one (https://ditto-cp.sourceforge.io/). I'd be surprised if they were referring to another "Ditto" software.

Ditto works well for me. If you have a cloud based file storage service like Google Drive or Dropbox, put the ditto database file in that folder and you'll also have an auto backup.

In case you are not aware: https://ditto-cp.sourceforge.io/

For example: the wonderful Ditto Clipboard Manager is both an old-style .msi installer here https://ditto-cp.sourceforge.io/, but it is also on Crapstore here: https://apps.microsoft.com/store/detail/ditto-clipboard/9NBLGGH3ZBJQ?hl=en-us&gl=us

I highly recommend you use a clipboard monitor. I use Ditto (download link, Windows store link). It can help diagnose problems like this by letting you see the contents of the clipboard (using <`> after copying something.

I’ll use the opportunity to recommend Ditto. A great clipboard manager that also allows for easy pasting as plain text, white space removed, linefeed cleanups and more.

Looks like some sort of clipboard manager? I use Ditto, it's free I think and you can customize it to do all sorts of things with text/images you copy to the clipboard. https://ditto-cp.sourceforge.io/
