Hello all -

I have a significant volume of photo dupes to work through, but I am a bit particular as to how I want to proceed through them, and so I wanted to ask about those with experience with deduplication apps.

I want to create a master set of photos, organized by year and device. Accordingly, in a serial fashion, I want to use a folder as a reference source, compare its contents to a second folder, and in the second folder I would like to be able to:

--easily see the non-duplicate photos;

--also be able to see the duplicate photos, and delete them.

I would also like to be able to identify and delete duplicates WITHIN a folder and its subfolders, although I understand that functionality is pretty standard.

One final question, is whether this can also be performed for video files.

Any recommendations to achieve this workflow would be most appreciated. Thanks all.
