Video Duplicate Finder is a cross-platform software to find duplicated video (and image) files on hard disk based on similiarity. That means unlike other duplicate finders this one does also finds duplicates which have a different resolution, frame rate and even watermarked.

Czkawka (tch•kav•ka (IPA: [ˈʧ̑kafka]), "hiccup" in Polish) is a simple, fast and free app to remove unnecessary files from your computer.

Videohash is a Python package for detecting near-duplicate videos (Perceptual Video Hashing). It can take any input video and generate a 64-bit equivalent hash value. Videohash is way more faster than comparing the imagehash values of individual frames of the video and more reliable than hashing keyframes. The video-hash-values for identical or near-duplicate videos are the same or similar, implying that if the video is resized (upscaled/downscaled), transcoded, watermark added/removed, stabilized, color changed, frame rate changed, changed aspect ratio, cropped, black-bars added or removed, the hash-value should remain unchanged or not vary substantially.

dupeGuru is a cross-platform (Linux, OS X, Windows) GUI tool to find duplicate files in a system. It’s written mostly in Python 3 and has the peculiarity of using multiple GUI toolkits, all using the same core Python code. On OS X, the UI layer is written in Objective-C and uses Cocoa. On Linux & Windows, it’s written in Python and uses Qt5.

dupeGuru is a tool to find duplicate files on your computer. It can scan either filenames or contents. The filename scan features a fuzzy matching algorithm that can find duplicate filenames even when they are not exactly the same. dupeGuru runs on Mac OS X and Linux.

Vidupe is a program that can find duplicate and similar video files. Normal duplicate file software only finds identical files. Vidupe looks at the actual video content regardless of different format and compression used (digital video fingerprinting. Simple, easy to use graphical user interface for comparing videos. Multithreaded operation, makes full use of all available CPU threads. Employs two powerful image comparison methods: pHash (perceptual hashing) and SSIM (structural similarity). Cross-platform development: source code available for compiling on Windows/Linux/macOS.

Video simili duplicate cleaner is a program that can find duplicate or simply similar video files. Video simili duplicate cleaner compares the actual video content regardless of different format or compression used, while other software only find identical files (digital video fingerprinting). Employs two powerful image comparison methods: pHash (perceptual hashing) and SSIM (structural similarity

Quote: "Video Comparer has unique duplicate detection features that you won't find in any other product. Only Video Comparer is able to detect quickly duplicate videos with image transformations (included scaled, cropped, rotated, …) and time shifted (included division into multiple clips). The comparison powered by an robust “video fingerprint” technology considers only the content of videos, not the file attributes (name, size, …)."

Duplicate Video Search helps you locate and remove duplicate videos. Using rare video fingerprinting technology, DVS can locate copies regardless of aspect, format, quality or scale. https://duplicatevideosearch.com/contact/

Near Duplicate Video Retrieval 2nd Rank for the Neural Search Hackathon We have witnessed an explosive growth of video data in a variety of video sharing websites with billions of videos being available on the internet, it becomes a major challenge to perform near-duplicate video retrieval (NDVR) from a large-scale video database. NDVR aims to retrieve the near-duplicate videos from a massive video database, where near-duplicate videos are defined as videos that are visually close to the original videos. Users have a strong incentive to copy a trending short video & upload an augmented version to gain attention. With the growth of short videos, new difficulties and challenges for detecting near duplicate short videos appears. Here, we have built a Neural Search solution using Jina to solve the challenge of NDVR.

SimilarImages is a utility program to analyze and search large media collections (images/videos) for near duplicates, meaning media showing the same thing but e.g. in different file formats, compression levels, sizes. SimilarImages first analyzes a file, generating a color/location footprint of a normalized thumbnail image of a file, and then compares these footprints. Analyzation results will be cached and stored on disk, so that subsequent runs become faster. SimilarImages is a rather old tool I started developing a long time ago. While it does the job at hand fairly well, due to the legacy code base it is not feasible to develop new features or significantly improved matching without a major effort, one which I cannot provide at the moment. Hence there will be no significant new features, incl. Windows 64-bit (32-bit runs on 64-bit Windows), Mac OSX or Linux versions. You might however have luck with WINE.
