big number fails

Post by john »

this app "cashes/catalogs ZERO files" when the numbers are to big ... for example ... lets say you have 10,000 movies and you want to search for duplicates movies with these extenshions .... *.avi,*.divx,*.mkv,*.webm,*.mp4,*.m4v,*.mp4v,*.mpv4,*.ogm,*.ogv,*.flv,*.mpeg,*.mpg,*.mp2v,*.mpv2,*.m1v,*.m2v,*.m2p,*.mpe,*.ts,*.m2ts,*.m2t,*.tps,*.hdmov,*.mov,*.3gp,*.3gpp,*.3g2,*.3gp2,*.wmv,*.asf,*.ifo,*.vob,*.mpls,*.rm,*.rmvb

you get ZERO files compaired/the abilty to save them to a CVS file ...
can you fix this?

Try separating the extensions with semicolon (;) instead of comma.
eg *.avi;*.divx;*.mkv;*.webm

Just a heads up, I was also having troubles.

I selected 'File filter' to be 'video' [*.mov;*.avi;*.mp4;*.wmv], then added '*.mpg' at the end, but try as I might, the program wouldn't' detect any MPG files. I even made some myself, still wouldn't detect/find them.

I then saw this post had to replace all commas with semicolons to get it to detect the mpg files!

Thanks for that information!

BTW: Did some coding change that I had to do this to get the program to find/see MPG files?

Maybe the program should be set as default to use semicolons instead of commas to help others like I had with my frustration...or does this only happen to video files?
*just found this great program a day ago, still learning, but love it*
