Default Is there a good duplication checker?

I am looking for a good duplication checker that can check for double
pictures. Besides doing that also to be able to delete within the same
folder. Some don't.

Have tried a couple but nothing that really great.

http://www.prismaticsoftware.com/dup...pdetector.html is free
and works under 7; not sure if it does all the things you mention,
though I think it does.

Thanks, i am checking it out. I have two other ones i test. Duplication
Checker (ok, but does not have sets) and Awesome Duplication Checker
(this looks more cumbersome but detects more).

Got to check that too, but it cost some money. Maybe they have a trial.
Thanks too.

Duplicate Cleaner.
http://www.digitalvolcano.co.uk/cont...licate-cleaner

It checks for, finds and deletes all but one of any identical files on your
hard disc. Loads of features (including single or multiple directories),
easy to use, and it's FREE!

That's the one I use, after trying at least a half dozen.

Tried it, not that great. Yes it does find duplicates but not all.
I tried Dup Detector as suggest by John and it works much better. Old
interface but better results.
Thanks still for the suggestion.

I have been using:
http://www.pixolution.de/sites/ImageSorter_en.html
for a long time. This sorts images based on their color cast and
other parameters. Accordingly it will detect duplicates. This is a
very good if you download hundreds of images from the Internet.

Also it will detect duplicates even if these are of different sizes,
so that one can cull smaller sized images of the same scene. I use
it all the time.

This is the best one for finding duplicate pictures, not only can it
find exact byte-for-byte matches, it can also find matches that aren't
byte-for-byte exact, but are optically identical.

Another one that's good for finding general file duplicates is:

Duplicate Cleaner - Find Duplicate Files
http://www.digitalvolcano.co.uk/cont...licate-cleaner

This one is extremely fast, and offers tons of options to narrow your
search down immensely. And it offers tons of options for deleting your
duplicates, including not deleting them and simply converting them to
file pointers to a single original file.

This looks fascinating, maybe not for just duplicate checking but for
sorting through pictures.
