NoobSpy Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Holy ... This thing works surprisingly well. It’s blazing fast and accurate. It’s not transcoding anything but plays all media very well. If I need to nitpick the videoplayer has no controls but you can skip with a right click. All this in a browser I am impressed. How does this work? Thank you for adding this. Quote Link to comment

I was not sure if a video player would be useful or not, so I integrated a basic one. Note that you can also use left/right arrow keys. 1 hour ago, NoobSpy said: All this in a browser I am impressed. How does this work? The browser is basically running an HTML VNC client that connects to the application running in the container. 1 Quote Link to comment

MellowB Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Great tool for my way too full media server, highly appreciated. There seems to be an issue with folder names including a "#" tho, not sure if this is an issue with the tool and if it can be fixed by you or if its an alpine linux thing? If I select a folder for the "Search directorys" that includes a hashtag at the front (first character) it selects the next directory above it that does not start with a hashtag and there seems to be no way around it... would be great if that could be fixed or I'll just have to change my directory structure. ^^ Quote Link to comment

This is an issue with the app itself. I created a bug report for this: https://github.com/0x90d/videoduplicatefinder/issues/398 1 Quote Link to comment
bobobeastie Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 This isn't working for me, it runs for a while but eventually I check and the container has stopped running. Maybe I have too many files, but don't we all? I have been using this on windows for years and it's great now, except for some groups of 50+ false duplicates. In it's early days I'd have to run it a bunch of times to get anything, because each run made a little more progress before crashing. Maybe that's what's happening here? I'd much rather run this in a docker container on the system that the files are on, than my Windows PC. Quote Link to comment
Djoss Posted February 13 Author Share Posted February 13 Do you have anything useful in the container log when it crashes ? Quote Link to comment

"...\appdata\VideoDuplicateFinder\log\nginx\error.log" is empty right now. I just starting running a scan, I'll check again if/when it crashes. I think I checked previously and it didn't look useful, but I may not know what to look for. EDIT: I had the warning "Fix Common Problems: Warning: Docker application VideoDuplicateFinder has volumes being passed that are mounted by Unassigned Devices, but they are not mounted with the slave option". I fixed that, don't know if it could be the cause. Edited February 13 by bobobeastie Quote Link to comment
Djoss Posted February 13 Author Share Posted February 13 You can get the container log by running "docker logs VideoDuplicateFinder". You can run the command after the crash. 1 Quote Link to comment

Djoss Posted February 17 Author Share Posted February 17 So is it only the amount of files to scan that creates the crash ? How many do you need to have ? Quote Link to comment

I don't know how I would know that the number of files is the cause for sure. I would/do choose to scan all of them preferably, rough estimate for me is 230K files. I scan the same directories successfully with the Windows version. It takes about a day to finish, and I generally start it at night and close everything so it has enough memory. I noticed that this container only uses a bit more than a gig or RAM, which seems low in comparison. I guess I'll run a test on a single small directory... Quote Link to comment

Yes, if you can find a way to (more easily) reproduce that would be useful. 1 Quote Link to comment

It was successful on a smaller directory. I just realized I had the Scan Images or whatever checked and the setting that says 1 is most stable was at 2. I think the 2 was my fault. I'm trying the whole thing with those two issues fixed. EDIT: It just finished on the whole thing! Thanks. Edited February 19 by bobobeastie new details Quote Link to comment
Jonwork88 Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 This looks like just what I need to clean up old versions of family videos. Trying it out and I get the error "cannot find shared FFmpeg libraries". Want to make sure its not a problem with my install - was ffmpeg/ffprobe bundled into the container or do I need to install it separately. If I need to install separately, should I be putting it in the "/mnt/user/appdata/VideoDuplicateFinder" directory? Thanks! Quote Link to comment

This should be fixed with the latest version of the image. Quote Link to comment
