Type of Enhancement

Web Interface/Frontend

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

In a Library view, the "Missing" dropdown has been helpful to help me find books that need matching to get full set of metadata.

I wish, there are a way to show "Duplicate" of the same book, can be based on title, and or length.

Why would this be helpful?

This might indicate I have multiple copies of the book in different folders, different format of the same book, or other information. This will be helpful for me to check and clean up my library.

This happens

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

Library view, top bar where the dropdown shows (All, Genre, Tag, Series... Missing.. Issues) will have Duplicate as an option.

Audiobookshelf Server Version

2.17.4

Current Implementation (Screenshot)

No response

I think this falls more under a file system duplicate detection tool.

I would like to add a +1 to this request as it's helpful especially when using the "Match Books" tool from the Library page in Settings.

I noticed this issue more with books in a series where twice after the initial matching that two books from two series had pulled the same search result. So I had one pair of Book 1 of XYZ in two different series. The file names were book 1 and book 2.

I add my books manually through the server and not via the web upload tool.

The best way to show support for a feature request is by reacting with a "Thumbs up" to the initial message of the issue instead of just saying +1 or I also want this. When looking for new features, issues are sorted by the number of thumbs up reactions, not the number of notifications that an issue generated.
