hydrusvideodeduplicator 0.3.1

Video deduplicator utility for Hydrus Network

Hydrus Video Deduplicator

Hydrus Video Deduplicator finds potential duplicate videos through the Hydrus API

---

How It Works:

The deduplicator works by comparing videos similarity by their perceptual hash.

Potential duplicates can be processed through the Hydrus duplicates processing page just like images.

You can choose to process only a subset of videos with --query using Hydrus tags, e.g. --query="character:edward" will only process videos with the tag character:edward.
