Instead of using the filename to determine duplicate audio files have you
considered using an audio fingerprint? ... Apparently it uses
http://acoustid.org/ which is an open source library.

This is an interesting lateral-thinking idea. That's an ambitious and

Subject: Duplicate matching
Folks, I was about this write some utility code to search through my 20,000
audio files looking for probable duplicates. I say "probable" because I found
file names like these:
Lovelock - Trumpet Concerto (SSO Concert).mp3

Hi Stephen, I wrote a utility in Framework 1.0 that finds duplicate files
by content (builds a dictionary of checksums). In this case the files with
"similar" names might be the same recording at different bitrates, making
them binary different. So it's a bit fuzzy what I'm looking for. Off the

Great for finding identical files with different names. Probably won't help

Thanks Greg H, the "weighting" is a very interesting idea. I'm running some
simple experiments now with a word list and an inverted list of file names,
just to help me picture the problem in my head. The problem with a
weighting comparison is that I don't know what to compare with what,

Hi Greg,
I should look at my code before I write comments from memory...
The result is a *double *value being the sum of:
· number of times the same letter appears in both strings
· 10 times the number of times the same two letters appears in both
strings
· 100 times t
Hi Greg,
Please find following what I have used in the past.
It is very expensive, but I can not see a better way of doing it.
It returns an integer which is the sum of:
- number of times the same letter appears in both strings
- 10 times the number of times the same two letters appears in
