About finding duplicate images

Post by Kerr »

I need to find and mark duplicate images that have different metadata (EXIF).
How do I exactly do this with Duplicate Cleaner (Pro 4.0.5)? I have some idea using Image Mode - Exact Match (Photo Similarity) and None (Match other tags) but want to make sure. Even a difference of 1 bit in an image will not show it as a duplicate, will it?

Is that the correct way?

Upon searching the board, the most similar topic to my need is:

A 'pixel match' image hash mode is coming in update 4.0.4. This should do what you need!

You are right - if want to find exact image matches (same resolution, pixels, etc) but ignore the Exif information then this is way to do it.

Image Mode ->Exact Match, no tag matching.
