Find Length Duplicates not working in some cases

[Skodd]

I was cleaning some of my folders of duplicates and I noticed that there was way fewer duplicates that I thought. I used another tool (AllDup) to confirm the results and found a lot of duplicates not found in Search Everything Alpha 1.5.0.1312a x64. Here one example of 4 files that have the same length.

The files extensions are .wmv , .mkv and two .mp4 file with the same length report in Everything.



When clicking on Find Length Duplicates, I get zero results.

Here are my length properties options:

I've uploaded mediaInfo output of the files in txt format.

Thanks

Everything uses a 100-nanosecond resolution for length.

This high resolution information is not displayed in Everything.
Typically, Everything will truncate the length to seconds.


Finding duplicated lengths will use this high 100-nanosecond resolution.
Only files that match the same length down to the 100-nanoseconds will be returned.


While the length in seconds may all appear the same, your files might have the following lengths in 100-nanoseconds, for example:
32:40.0000001
32:40.0000002
32:40.1000000
32:40.9999999



If you would like to find length duplicates that are within 1 second, please try the following:

• In Everything, type in the following search and press ENTER:
  /length_dupe_tolerance=1
• If successful, length_dupe_tolerance=1 is shown in the status bar for a few seconds.
• where 1 is the tolerance in seconds.

Please note: files with the same length should be used as a duplicated guide only, the content may differ.

Make perfect sense thank you. Most of the "duplicates" that were not reported in Search Everything were videos that were reencoded/interpolated.

Should color highlighting also abide by "tolerance"?

(As it is, it does not, so 4:03.21 is colored differently from 4:03.18.)



(& i'll note that any "tolerance" setting number
may work out better or worse
then some other setting, number,
based upon your search & filtering you
might be using)

dupe_group_colors will use the display text to calculate the color.

I will consider highlighting based on the value instead of the display text.
Thank you for the suggestion.

For now, you can adjust your duration format.
