Feature Request: Highlight titles with duplicate segments

Post by guydreier »

I believe a wonderful feature would be to highlight in some fashion any titles that contain duplicate segments in them. Then through un-checking titles, the highlighting would clear. This would save a bunch of unnecessary rip time.

Thanks for great program!

If you're thinking about this as a way to eliminate the 50-copies-of-a-movie-but-only-one-is-real problem, that isn't the only time you'll see titles that have the same chapters as other titles.

What about on BDs, where there are several versions with scenes add/removed? For example, "English" vs "French" vs "Spanish", where the title/ending are localized, but the rest of the movie is the same? Theatrical vs Director's cut, where scenes are re-arranged?

Yes I realize all that you said. I'm just thinking of ways to expedite the exclusion of unnecessary titles and speed the research of segments that are unique in the ways you mentioned.

P.S. On BDs specifically, "50-copies-of-a-movie-but-only-one-is-real" is not the only time you'll see titles containing duplicate segments.
