Canned sourcecode?

I'd just install those programs, though I guess making a bubble sort+duplicate detector doesn't take long at all.

Simplest thing: create a playlist using a program, then get your app to bubble sort it, then just compare each item.

Yeah but its 11000 tracks... Im going to write an id3 tag fixer first by the way cause no program seems to do what i want AND handle thousands of files... Then finding dupes will be easy.

Really?  Most apps don't stick restrictions on number of files - they just take longer to handle 'em.  I might see if Winamp/MediaMonkey have similar features...

yeah good apps but the homebrew you find on google ... they overload. one program had a standard open dialog which lists all the files like <file1>, <file2>, <file3> and returns it to the program, and it couldnt handle 6000 files (lol, it even said 'hold ctrl to select multiple files'oh and by canned source i mean stuff that's obviously been done before (well) a thousand times so you don't need to do it again, like ID3 tag controls, base converters, certain file format reading code like INI, whatever

i used to use planet source code
