Summary0000315: mergining multiple itunes folders
DescriptionHi

I have multiple iTunes libraries that I'd like to merge into a single mega-library, without dupes.

I'm pretty sure that I can figure it out eventually, but since this seems perfect for Visual Differ, I was wondering if there was a step-by-step that you're aware of... or a video guide or something like that....?

If not, I think I can make it work, just wondering if someone has already done this and left instructions for the rest of us...

Thanks!

No tutorial exists about merging multiple sources, just some hint:

- be sure to make a copy before start, if you accidentally delete/overwrite some files you can restore them. When you finish you can delete the copy
- do not match by file content, should be very very very very slow and inaccurate (two audio files can be "identical" by content but differ by file size)
- starting comparing two folders and merge them, then compare the merged folder with another
