Imagine having to find duplicate video files on your computer. Having duplicates may happen when you record the same show twice or when a commercial repeats itself in two different shows. In this case, you can't use an ordinary tool for finding duplicate files, because the two duplicate videos can have different names. In this case, the only solution would be to analyze the frames of each video and to compare them to one another. An application which allows you to do just that is Visual Search Pony.

This simple Windows program allows you to compare several videos for duplicates, by analyzing their frames. The installation procedure of this program is easy to complete and so is the program's usage. After installing and running the program, the user will be presented with a simple and intuitive interface, which allows adding video folders into the program. Several folders can be added at the same time. The program is compatible with a wide range of video formats, including AVI, MPEG, WMV and so on.

After completing this step, the user can adjust the sensitivity of the detection process and can also choose the number of seconds of the movie that should be scanned. Setting a higher sensitivity may produce incorrect results. After scanning the added videos, the user will be able to remove duplicates with ease, using a single click.

Pros

It can compare several videos and can find duplicates, by analyzing the frames of the videos. Besides that, it supports a wide range of video formats. Moreover, it allows adding video folders directly into the interface. What's more, the user can customize the sensitivity of the detection process.

Cons

Analyzing a lot of videos may take some time, especially on a slower PC. Visual Search Pony allows you to search for duplicate videos with ease and to remove them using a single mouse click.
