A simple script finding duplicate episodes via Jellyfin API - bjn - 2023-08-29
Bothered by duplicate episodes in my library which tend to build up over time, I wrote a little script which uses the Jellyfin API to loop through all TV series in a given library and look for duplicate episodes.
Here it is:
https://github.com/tremby/jellyfin-find-duplicates
Usage/configuration information is all there in the readme, and also via the
--help option.I hope it helps someone.
It's tested only on Linux so far, though it probably works on OS X too. Patches welcome, if for example support can be added for other platforms, or you notice how efficiency can be improved, or you find bugs.
