I added two alternatives last night -

https://mediafusion.elfhosted.com/configure

https://knightcrawler.elfhosted.com/configure

They both gave me links and worked exactly as torrentio did when working. Maybe give them a try.

When I did this recently I used Lexicon DJ management (as I'm a DJ and it has lots of other features I was using too).

There are a few options to choose from in terms of how it searches and how strict it is when trying to find duplicates. I'm not sure which features are available on the free version, I paid just for one month to sort out a lot of things within my DJ library but it may be worth looking in to to see if it can serve your needs :)

edit to add more info

Website says - "With Find Duplicates you can scan all your tracks in your library and automatically compare them based on the audio signature or tags. This way truly identical audio duplicates are found. This even works with different file types. If you have an MP3 and a WAV with the same audio, Lexicon will match them and lets you choose which one you want to keep."

So it doesnt just scan filenames it compares the audio files themselves to weed out duplicates.

Here is a YT video of the process from their site

I have never thought it is worth it, even back when WOW released, the economy was better and I was a teenager with a lot more disposable income I would never pay for a subscription to play a game. It is just a terrible way to run a game and I have always thought that.

I've never really understood why people would support that kind of model personally, there has never been a justification in my book.

Back then Guild Wars 1 was and always will be the far superior game when put up against WOW in my personal opinion and once I'd paid for that I could play it every month without further outlay. Shame how they ruined it with GW2 (unpopular opinion I'm sure but I stand by it xD)

I use AirVPN and see others who are happy and recommend it. I moved from mullvad due to them stopping port forwarding and have been happy ever since.

I am aware of mental omega but have never actually got around to giving it a go to see what it is like, last I looked at it was quite a long time ago now too!

All good man, appreciate the reply. I'm tempted to give it a go now and see if I can set up my own hybrid control mapping using the touchscreen as a mouse and attach a keyboard to see what kind of experience that offers, I feel like it could either be decent or horrendous but worth a try xD

It was excellent, it was the dream and I miss it every fucking day xD

You had short press and long press of any letter so you pretty much had 52 user bindable shortcuts to open any app as well as perform system functions etc.

Hell fucking yeh! I'd take slide out or keytwo form factor. Keytwo is the greatest modern phone I have owned!

That is why I mentioned blackberry specifically, phones can have a keyboard and it not be better for sure, I have also used some crap ones. Blackberry however made amazing keyboards on their devices and the best phone I have owned was a keytwo which I used up until around 2 years ago when it died a death.

I dont see why you have to have some email centric job or need a specific "use case" to want a better, more tactile typing experience. I work running industrial machines, I dont touch a computer or send any emails as part of my work but that doesnt mean that I dont want a phone with a decent keyboard. I still have to type messages on my phone, like I am doing right now and for me personally I think touchscreen is by far the inferior option when put next to a half decent keyboard. I dont need to be sending emails or working on documents or programming or what ever else to appreciate a better typing experience.

I type every day on this shitty touch screen without those additional work needs or whatever.

I realise that not everyone wants this and that is fine but the suggestion that because I dont work on my phone in that was so therefore dont need a physical keyboard is ludacris. I am in a niché of people who want this, I know that but that doesnt make my opinion any less valid in terms of my desire just to have the option of not typing on these hateful touch screens :)

I haven't found a touchscreen / keyboard combination that really works as well as physical keys, it never can. I could write multiple paragraphs on my blackberry accurately without ever looking down at the screen.

Combine that with keyboard shortcuts to open whatever app or use whatever function I liked made using a phone so much more streamlined, no opening the screen to see what apps are active and scrolling to the one you want or having to go to your list of apps and find what you need, just press the system button plus the assigned letter and I'm in the app I want.
