Deleting movie duplicates

<< < (2/2)

nostra:
I'll think about it

AimHere:
One possible approach would be to have PVD delete the duplicate that has the least number of fields containing data. Movie records added when importing filmographies are likely only going to have a couple of fields populated (Title, original title, year, actors) while the ones *I* added (through "New Movie Master" or file scans) are gonna have the works... posters, screenshots, media information, genre, descriptions, etc. etc.

nostra:
If I do so, the process of removing duplicates will become way too complex and slow, especially when invisible movies are to be checked, so I do not think it is a good idea.

Maybe I will implement the duplicate highlighting functionality.

CAD:
i know pvd isnt a catalog program, but most people do use it as one.
Deleting duplicate functions need to be looked at with care as (especially now) people have the same movie in different formats

personally i would have it so it highlights duplicates and let the user make the choice what to do with them
Perhaps set the bookmarked flag ??

Yes, most probably it will work like this in future
