Compiled version for MacOS? FFMPEG Hardware support?

speedheathenULTRA opened this issue · comments

I don't have the knowledge to compile an app for MacOS but I noticed in the 1.211 release you note "source code for MacOS" would it be possible for you to compile a MacOS version for download?

I'd be happy to pay you something for your time. Trying to sort through over 14tb's of assets and running Parallels on a brand new I9 10-core Hackintosh loses some performance.

Also wondering if it's possible to modify so the FFMPEG calls include an option for Radeon hardware acceleration?

Thank you!

Hey Jason, I’m not the original dev, but I did get it to work on macOS.
I have 800gb of multiply duplicated videos, but even with vidupe it’s a terribly long process, as there is no automated deletion process, you have to manually review each match found and delete one of the two. I had 8000 duplicates found (see #7), and it didn’t take ages for vidupe to find them (so I’m not sure if hardware acceleration would really help, as each file doesn’t require heavy computing. Maybe file read/write to DB in my guess opinion is probably a major part of the time it takes, which is not very long !)

If you’re still interested I can help you out getting it to run on macOS, just tell me. We can wait for @kristiankoskimaki to answer, but I haven’t seen answers from him on other issues so... 🥲

It is an ssd.
It’s a recent, but not highly specked MBP.
You can check out my fork and tell me if it works for you, I found a way to compile and release it !
I’m currently sorting through my own stack of duplicate videos, and I have easily deleted the largest ones, with 200gb already freed 👌

WoW you’ve got some specs 😂

Forking is a git thing, if you want to look up « git forks »

Thanks very much for the Mac version

Where is the MAC version? I can't find it to download. @nac6 if it requires compiling could you possibly compile it and make it available? I do not know how to compile/code.

You can download the compiled from this site:- https://github.com/theophanemayaud/vidupe

@nac6 thank you so much!!!

@nac6 see my other thread here, wasn't sure if the '@' symbol called your name out properly.

I published the app on the app store, if you want to support the work I did to port it you could buy it :)

I added a few "auto delete" options to greatly help with large amounts of duplicates, but I haven't documented them yet 😅

@theophanemayaud you kick ASS dude!!!!!!!! I just purchased the APP!!!!!! Will test and get back to you. Drop me an email so we can connect directly on my thoughts and suggestions!

Thanks !!!
You can contact me via the Github issues on the project page : https://github.com/theophanemayaud/video-simili-duplicate-cleaner/issues
It's great if we chat there, as I can keep all the ideas in the project space directly 😁I can just add a tag discussion so it's not confusing 😉 What do you think of that ?
