Hello:-)

I have huge amount of "duplicate", meaning same image but with a different name and file format. If I try a pluggin to find duplicates it finds the images with same name but not all the others... I think there is no software for this so i try to split my screen in 2, but also impossible to get 2 screens with "grid" option. Do you have any tips for me please? Thank you so much:-) have a nice day, Laurent

"If @johnrellis is watching this thread- I seem to recall he knew about software with AI that could find 'look-alike' photos."

My Any Vision plugin will find near-duplicates using the content labels from Google Cloud Vision (AI):

Sometimes it does amazingly well. For example, it found these near-duplicates taken three years apart, in a catalog of 32K photos:

The labels Google assigned to the two photos were:

---------------

suit (99), formal wear (96), tuxedo (93), blazer (88), standing (87), gentleman (85), fashion (84), outerwear (78), socialite (68), flooring (68), haute couture (66), white collar worker (59), businessperson (58)

But sometimes the suggested near-duplicates are hilariously bad.

Hi, Laurent,

And which Plugin are you using?

The Teekesselchen Plugin can find files based on Capture Date, ignoring Filenames, FIle Type, and File-size.

So make changes to the Plugin options, you should be able to achieve results that are useful.

These options find different named JPGs that were exported from the raw NEFs.-

Hello Wobert, and thnak you very much for your answer.

I use Teekesselchen Plugin also, but the problem is that all these "duplicate" photo were created after the original date, so i can also not use dates as option.... 😞

If you created your 'duplicates' from the originals, then I would think that 'Capture Date' would be the same.

My JPG and TIF derivatives (from NEFs) all show "Date Time Original" the same as the original NEFs.

Maybe your process to create the 'duplicates' did not preserve "Date Time Original".

Wobert, Yes i checked and date is different. In fact to be honest I do not know how these duplicates cames from...Maybe exportation for FB and other media. Anyway the date does not match. Do you know maybe a way to split the original screen in 2 parts? So i will be abble to get duplicate on top and research for original on base?
