At this stage it's only pure duplicates but I shall loosen the filter step by step as I weed things out - I saw something like 50 pages of results in one partial run! Regretably I can't simply delete images returned as I need to double check our Image Library catalogues to see what records are associated with which versions of the image and redirect/delete as appropriate. Q > I'm purely using the software to identify our duplicates and manually de-duplicating. Else it will just take more time to load the pictures, and indeed increase network traffic. I imagine this would create higher network traffic but would the program be bottlenecked by the slower data transfer speeds?Ī > Theorically it's no problem, but sometimes if the server is a linux using a Samba share, it just doesn't recognize the drive. Q > Are there any implications for running this cross network? I run this on a desktop and a laptop but the image server is located elsewhere. Those won't be counted as loaded, but it will still remove one "Remaining file". Then it will truely load the picture, that load can be canceled for various reason : any error while loading the file or the file size doesn't match the filter set in the Loader tab or it's an animated picture. That's the remaining files to load count. It counts them if the extension matches his known types of image. What does this do?Ī > At first, VisiPics checks your folders for potential pictures. I have also never seen anything other than a 0 in the To Compare section. I have wondered if maybe VisiPics' access to the images was cut so that the Loaded Pictures returned was the total it managed to review but even if true this needs clarification. Additionally at the end of one run (overnight - 11 hours per time listed), I had 5,000-6,000 Loaded Pictures instead of the original 116,000 VisiPics started with (Yes I realise I said there were only 89,000 images in the folder so I'm not sure where the additional 27,000 are coming from). files move from Remaining Files to Loaded Pictures, but it does not seem to work like that, the status bar sometimes whips through but doesn't transfer numbers to Loaded Pictures. Most of this is obvious, the duplicate lines are the total images and number of groups of images that are duplicates, the remaining files the images VisiPics has yet to look at but what of Loaded Pictures and To Compare? I assumed Loaded Pictures would be all files once VisiPics looks at them i.e. Q > You have instructions on most of the controls but not about the Remaining Files | Loaded Pictures | To Compare | Duplicate Pictures | Duplicate Groups section. I understand you have no intentions on dedicating substantial effort to VisiPics in the near future but just in case you do find some time in the next couple of years. Hi I'm trialling your software on a 424 GB / 89,000 image server folder and had some questions. VisiPick is got to be the BEST, If I can successfully use it anyone can. Unfortunately I am one of these guys that downloads everything and anything.Have no idea why, I am not even sure if I am at the right place to tell you all this. Thanks to your software I now have only 2,354 pictures on my PC. Have to let everyone know about VisiPics, I have or should I say had over 4,000 pictures on my PC. When I'll get tired of it, I'll make an update :) The 1.30 version still works pretty fine on 32bit systems. Too much professional work, too few free time and motivation to work on VisiPics right now. Please let me know when there is an update.Any idea when the next version is coming out? I'm looking forward to the feature that hides all the pictures that are set to ignore. ![]() I would appreciate and update with this support. I would even accept a partial support following section 5 below to ease my eyestrain and allow my using for all but the most abbreviated sessions. In your app, the all white backgrounds are particularly painful for more that a few minutes to my post-cancer-treatment eyes. Microsoft’s own applications follow this and are usable by me and others so afflicted. However, please add routines which follow Microsoft developer guidelines to support visually impaired users, such as am I. Normally is shows white background, which I suppose is acceptable for most users. Instead it shows a black background on text and on the main app as completely back with the squares with text or “icon” in color. However, it doesn’t support High Contrast Theme on Windows 10.
