Hello,

I appreciate this new feature. Please, what was old values ? I want to try this release and try to reproduce the same results as in 2.4.2 release.
And then, if you can give details about the new options, I will configure them as I want.

Regards,
Cedric

You can just press "Defaults" button, to restores default values (Similarity standard "Precise" settings).

Is there going to be an update to resolve the contrast on the Rating column when in Dark Mode? That would be great! See my example in an earlier post.

fixed in 2.4.4

General / Re: Automatic Mark Files - Add "Clipping" under General Tab

« on: May 06, 2020, 21:20:35 »

Clipping doesn't participate in rating calculation, if you want automark by it you need use Javascipt, see example:

Code: [Select]

/*
Author: Similarity Team
Version: 1.0
Description:
Simple auto-mark dialog analog
For speedup before launch analyze all files ("Analyze all" context menu)
*/

// unmark all files
results.audio.unmark();

// simple mark by lower bitrate
var dups = results.audio.dups;
for (var idx = 0; idx < dups.length; ++idx) {
let item1 = dups[idx].item1;
let item2 = dups[idx].item2;
        // skip counter-pair (1-2 and 2-1), process pair only once
        if (item1.path > item2.path) continue;
// first priority
if (item1.analysis.rating > item2.analysis.rating)
{ item2.marked = true; continue; }
if (item1.analysis.rating < item2.analysis.rating)
{ item1.marked = true; continue; }
// second priority
if (item1.analysis.clips > item2.analysis.clips)
{ item2.marked = true; continue; }
if (item1.analysis.clips < item2.analysis.clips)
{ item1.marked = true; continue; }
// 3rd priority
if (item1.analysis.maxFreq > item2.analysis.maxFreq)
{ item2.marked = true; continue; }
if (item1.analysis.maxFreq < item2.analysis.maxFreq)
{ item1.marked = true; continue; }
}

If you want just forbid marking files with bitrate 320 and above, you can use this automarkin script (you may want change priority too, it's very easy see if):

Code: [Select]

/*
Author: Similarity Team
Version: 1.0
Description:
Simple auto-mark dialog analog
For speedup before launch analyze all files ("Analyze all" context menu)
*/

// unmark all files
results.audio.unmark();

// simple mark by lower bitrate
var dups = results.audio.dups;
for (var idx = 0; idx < dups.length; ++idx) {
let item1 = dups[idx].item1;
let item2 = dups[idx].item2;
        // skip counter-pair (1-2 and 2-1), process pair only once
        if (item1.path > item2.path) continue;
// don't allow mark files with bitrate > 320
mark1 = item1.analysis.bitrate > 320000 ? false : true;
mark2 = item2.analysis.bitrate > 320000 ? false : true;
// first priority
if (item1.analysis.rating > item2.analysis.rating)
{ item2.marked = mark2; continue; }
if (item1.analysis.rating < item2.analysis.rating)
{ item1.marked = mark1; continue; }
// second priority
if (item1.analysis.duration > item2.analysis.duration)
{ item2.marked = mark2; continue; }
if (item1.analysis.duration < item2.analysis.duration)
{ item1.marked = mark1; continue; }
// 3rd priority
if (item1.analysis.maxFreq > item2.analysis.maxFreq)
{ item2.marked = mark2; continue; }
if (item1.analysis.maxFreq < item2.analysis.maxFreq)
{ item1.marked = mark1; continue; }
// 4th priority
if (item1.analysis.clicks > item2.analysis.clicks)
{ item2.marked = mark2; continue; }
if (item1.analysis.clicks < item2.analysis.clicks)
{ item1.marked = mark1; continue; }
// 5th priority
if (item1.analysis.clips > item2.analysis.clips)
{ item2.marked = mark2; continue; }
if (item1.analysis.clips < item2.analysis.clips)
{ item1.marked = mark1; continue; }
}

Wishlist / Re: Ability To Add Files In A Result Session

« on: May 06, 2020, 20:54:54 »

Unfortunately no, you can't change audio results with Javascript, you can mark/unmark, change tags, but nothing more. Main idea to use JavaScript on processing already scanned data, or control scanning itself (hard way).
We think about your suggestion, to save some scanning data and add new data to it.
You can always use folder groups to mark one folder as you trusted untouchable collection and new folder wit candidates for checking with your main one, see Part 2 of Tutorial: http://www.similarityapp.com/tutorial#part2

Thanks for suggestion we think about configurable folder groups (with some criteria and settings).
You can do such scanning now with Javascript but you need some programming knowledge.

Sorry, I don't fully understand you want to set some marker with exact duration (ex. 0:0:32), save it, and jump to it on any sound played?
