Title: Dup Finder & MJ9
Post by: KingSparta on October 06, 2002, 11:45:58 am

I Was thinking and hoping that some new hooks for MJ9

One i was thinking is if the file name and title match and MJ has analiyzed the file a match could be made also on BPM and Intensity.

where the bpm and intensity may change this could be used to know if the version of the file is the same.

This would be very nice addition to the com-interface. I will support this, if it every gets in.

maybe we can get matt or someone at j river to give some preview options of the MJ9 SDK?

Private Sub J_River()

For MyLoop = 1 To 100

Print "J River, This Is Where You Jimp In"

Next MyLoop

End Sub

Just curious, although their supposed to be a better dupfinder included in MC already: Is this meanwhile added to the COM-Interface?
I will work on testing the new interface about this evening; have been away from MC-dev quite a while now.

Could you please tell me, where the dupfinder in MC is? I can't find it - or my definition of "duplicates" differs from that some other people use.

My definition: similarities in bitrate, bpm, length, kbits and so on. Duplicates are _not_ same songs with very different encoding (because I sometimes store songs in different encodings for a reason) - well sometimes they are.

Mirko

P.S. Only for the record: Because of fatal data loss some months ago (f* up during linux-de-installation) there will be no mjdubfinder any more. And no other tools I've ever written  :-\
P.P.S. Sorry for bringing up this very old posting

Over In The Left Tree

Click On Playlists
Auto SmartLists (Music)
Task -- possible duplicates

then type in the fields you wish to match like 'Name'

Thanks.

However, I do find that MJDubFinder was more usefull as it provided some more "matching-functions" (and I knew which once were used) - even it was much slower.
Anyway, as I have lost my development-sources I guess I'll have to stick with the standards - no, better, I will do a feature-suggestion.

it did not work correctly and you could run it 20 times and it would find something else everytime.

so basicly it did not do a good job finding dups.

Sorry King, it _did_ work, trust me. On my collection anyway (12.000) reproducable same results (I have screenshots).

Man, what's wrong? :(
