[Linux.Gui]Bug: JPGs & MKVs are matching, and thumbnails don't always work

[vsolina2]

videoduplicatefinder version

2.1.0

Operating System

Linux

Client Type

Cross platform GUI (Versions >= 2.1.0)

Describe the bug

Not creating the thumbnails result every files is 100% match in jpg and mkv

Expected behaviour

thumbnails should be created maybe add some checking on time length of video

[strazto]

To get this straight - there's two things going on here, right?

1. (More serious) sometimes it seems that MKVs and JPGs are incorrectly matches
2. Thumbnails are not being created sometimes

Does 2. only occur when in groups with mismatched MKVs and JPGs?

[vsolina2]

Correct all files are matched regardless of size format Thumbnails are not created regardless of settings/choices 2. occurs all the time

Would you be able to provide a set of files I can reproduce 1. or both with please?

[strazto]

Sounds like the MKV/JPG thing is related to 0x90d/videoduplicatefinder#137 - The MKV container format can contain both images & videos, and sometimes the embedded image is used for comparison (which is a bug)

[strazto]

2. May be a dependency issue, please confirm that you have libgdiplus installed

[vsolina2]

libgdiplus is installed it also occurs with Mp4 avi all are regarded as duplicates

Okay, I'd love if you'd be able to share the files that trigger either problem, is that posssible? Happy to provide a drive link for you to drop them in if it helps

[strazto]

@vsolina2 I'm going to have to delete those comments, as I can't condone sharing links to piracy sites here

[strazto]

that's okay though - I'll look into this

[vsolina2]

No problem I thought that would happen but at least you know where to find files for testing unfortunately there isn’t a good dataset for video like there is for images https://opensource.google/projects/open-images-dataset and the datasets with video are not as suitable for this task as most are designed for machine learning https://research.google/tools/datasets/ https://www.kaggle.com/tags/video-data https://gitlab.kitware.com/viratdata/viratannotations we could make a dataset by taking several hires videos and producing a number of files in various format and resolutions for first cut testing

That's okay - I was hoping for specific examples that reproduce the bug because in my usage I haven't been able to reproduce it.

[strazto]

We call this a MWE, minimal working example, or sometimes a reproducible example https://stackoverflow.com/help/minimal-reproducible-example

This would be very helpful in isolating the cause of these bugs.
