Ubuntu :: Software That Can Compare And Find Similar & Duplicate Images For Ubuntu?
Apr 1, 2011
Here's the problem I hope to solve: I had to recover a hard drive with pictures and other data on it after the file system was erased. Now, in some cases there are 5 or more instances of the same image with different sizes and different file names. Sometimes the images are also in different formats such as jpeg or pnm...
Some of these images may be duplicates of images in a backup hard drive. I am just asking to see if there is a software that can visually compare images, find visual similarities, and ask me which to keep.

I am looking for a Linux app that can find and remove duplicate images (with different filenames if that's at all possible).

I have a folder that over 70,000 images (within it is a complex hierarchy of subfolders). Of these 70,000 images I assume that I only have ~10,000 unique images; the rest are copies that have been resized. I would like to somehow delete all of the resized copies of the larger originals and remove them, keeping only the original image.
Is there a way to use imagemagick (or any other application) to scan this folder recursively and determine which files may be (resized) copies?

I have a HP laptop, and recently I configured the Remote Control to control the sound, and make a funny joke when a curious friend press the Power button in the remote control. To make this work, I want to make a shell script that calls a dialog, not a console dialog, but a GTK dialog. Then I tried to install the package "xdialog", that is no longer present on the official repositories, and I tried to find a similar package, but no success. What comes closest is "dialog", but this shows only a console dialog.

We have a huge amount of duplicate files in a folder and I would like some pointers on to writing a bash script to create a list of the duplicate files. I've seen examples that check for the md5 sum of files... but I dont need that, the file name is enough.

I would like to check two folders for duplicate files (two pretty old backup instances).
MY folders are quite alike so I would like to stop the NON-duplicated files for that I want to be able to do some checks not only for the filename but alsofor the filesize (might be the case that two files have same name but not size).
The ideal would be to suggest me such a program with gui but if not I will try run any script code that is available outhere.

I am looking for an application (better kde one) that can search two external hard disks I have and find any duplicate files. I did some backups before to one disk which i copied few years ago to the other disk. Right now I would like some program to check files and tell me if there are the same.

I would like to find a command which automatically finds and removes phrases which appear more than once in a text file. I still want to keep one of these phrases, but I only want to see one of them.

What kind of method to find the duplicates files on linux,
1.how to find just using the file name, sometimes i figure out people often to copy their files to another directory and i want to find out if there any same file name in the linux box.
2. what about if i want to find the duplicate files based on contents of the file, example is in picture file if users store picture files from digital camera first they just save the file name in default but when they want to give that picture to others they will rename it, i've been used method md5 for this situation in python script but it takes long time
I'm asking this question just to know to use bash script a lot in work and i want to test out fdupes at home, is fdupes use similar md5 scan to find duplicate files?

I have some big files of logs that contain errors printed by an app. They are most of the time relevant, however most of them are similar. So i figured i could check what happened between a time interval with a find.
Im using this one
Code:
And I get an output similar to this one.
Code:
Is there a way to condensate the output lines to get only one or two, indicating the start and last occurrence of a block? Or I need to create a program to do so?
Because right now I get thousands of similar lines, but when I'm scrolling through them i sometimes miss relevant information that i would've otherwise noted if it wasn't all that spammy.

I have a directory containing a ton of photos, some of which are duplicates but just with different names. Is there any way in linux to find all the duplicates and remove all of them except the most recent version? I know on Windows there are utilities that will do this through a GUI, but I'm using Linux through the CLI only.

I have inherited a wordpress theme with a folder of images that I think are no longer being used. I wanted to find the orphaned images using grep, so I wrote this script:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
echo $PWD
for i in *.*; do
cd ..
[Code].....
Its seems like I got some false positives out of it, but it worked pretty ok. I guess. :| Of course, it is not checking for images in the content of the database.
Orphan finding has to be a wheel that is already invented.

Is it possible to list/find/compare the program versions on a Centos system, against Redhat/Centos Errata/Security/Bug lists? Sort of looking for a way to make sure that all the packages on a system are ok, and not a security risk-- Without having to update every package. A pseudo code, in my mind is:

I am running Linux from a DVD, not installed. I am not good with installing software, but since the DVD cannot be corrupted, I am content to operate this way. Lately, I have been having problems that previously did not occur. When I try to click on the checkbox to get rid of emails, it doesn't register in most cases, or when it does, I am clicking multiple times so it registers twice, meaning it is unchecked again. Even more frustrating is some issues that are affecting my ability to update my business. I am trying to modify spreadsheets (text not calculations).
Whenever I try to click & drag to select something to change, it keeps jumping around to select only some of what I want, something else or some combination of the 2. When I try to copy and paste several fields from 1 column to another, everything from the several fields in the source column ends up together in the last field in the target column. I am also trying to download some images from a website. There is a single column of links to the images. I have to click on the link to get to the image in order to copy it, then back out to continue looking for more links to do the same.
My computer keeps jumping back 2 steps, then forward 2 steps, and sometimes I lose my place in that list. I could deal with it if it were a small number of links, but this is a list of probably close to 20,000 links. Again, i am operating off of a live DVD so this should not be corruptible, but this has just started happening, and has been an issue the last several sessions.

I know that ImageMagick's convert program can be used as follows to convert a collection of images -- say, in PNG format -- to a PDF file:
convert *png output.pdf
The problem with this is that each image is then stretched to fit on one page, whereas I would like to keep the original dimensions of the images and put as many as possible on one page in the PDF file before moving on to another page.

I am just spent half an hour hunting for a thing that should be totally available already:USB install images of Ubuntu, knoppix and all the others.And, the only good way are so far complicated tutorials where you extract the stuff from an CD image. Why??Hasn't everybody notices that CDs/DVDs are vanishing big time? That more and more systems don't have the readers anymore? Instead of following a 10 point instruction list, it would be nice to just be able to download a Ubuntu 8.10 or whatever USB image and be able to beam that DIRECTLY to a USB stick with a dd command.
Or am a missing something here? Does this exist?It should by no means be mariginal, considering how important USB stick in specific and flash memory in general have become.

As a recent migrant to Ubuntu from Windows, I was expecting to be able to compare the sizes of two folders or set of folders by Bytes (as in windows). I'm slightly OCD when it comes to my personal files and folders, and I like to maintain identical backups in various pen-drives; as such, I was hoping to be able to track the file sizes of each folder set, but I can only do so in Kilobytes... Is there any application or other means by which to compare sizes in bytes --as is the case in windows?..

I finally got round to transcribing our wedding video from VCR to DVD. Now I would like to duplicate that video a few times and pass copies round the family, more to preserve it than to bore the relatives.
I dragged the DVD icon from the desktop to a thunar (file manager) window and it created a folder containing this lot code...
Total size 1.3 GB.
But I have no idea what to do with these files.
I tried this command code...
and ended up with a 4.4 GB file, which Archive Manager says contains the above folders, and presumably also contains an image of 3.1 GB of formatted but unused disk.
What's the best thing to do here? The ISO file will presumably burn a good DVD copy but it's a waste of disk space to keep it, (I'd like to keep a copy on hard disk too) and I guess will also take needlessly long to burn.
Can I create a smaller ISO from the file folders? If so, is there an app to edit the titles before I do so? The recorder put a second title "Empty Title" on the title page which I'd like to get rid of. I discovered by accident that the VOB files play in parole media player - one is the title screen, and the other two contain about half the video each. So I don't know what all the other files are about.

I have an internal hard drive and an external hard drive, both with about 350 GB of data. The data came from the same source, but over the last couple of years, different people have moved files around to different directories, and some files have been deleted. Now I want to merge all the files onto the internal hard drive. I estimate that 80% of the files on the external hard drive are the same, so I don't want to copy 290+ GB of data over when I already have it.
Therefore, I need a way to find just the files on the external hard drive that don't already exist on the internal one. In other words, I need to create two lists of file names irrespective of directories and compare them, selecting only the file names that exist in one list OR the other. I've Googled for solutions but can't find anything suitable. There are ways to create text files of the file names and compare them with diff, but they have to be in the same order, and since these files are in vastly different directories, that won't work.
