Reconcile - Video library(Movie Source) vs Movie library - rapidvelo - 2010-03-18
Is there any way to quickly reconcile or find out which movies exist in the source but do not in the library (upon scanning)?
For example if i look in the sources under video for my movies i see 1200 objects, in the count in the movie library i see 1166.
One way is to get a directory output listing, then do a compare of what is in the database, but this can take a long while. thought maybe if anyone has another faster and easier way?
thank you

No there isn't. You'll need to dump the files column from the moviesview table, and compare it to a directory listing.

some movies could be stacked, ie showing 1 entry in the library instead part 1/part 2 or disk 1/disk 2.

Yes, but its not too difficult to discern what the actual files are from the stack:// url.
