Req deduplication/alternate version
#1
i it possible to add a deduplication feature into kodi?

if there are more than one version of a movie...get rid of 2nd version or (better) provide an option to show version A or version B of this movie.

what do you think?

I started working on this a while ago but there are a lot of pitfalls where it's anything but obvious what the default behaviour should be. An example is if you choose to play a whole folder/directory containing a movie that you have multiple versions of. Which version do you play and why?

I still plan on finishing this but it's not my top priority right now.

in my opinion the one with the highest video resolution...but i think thats something for a "addon/feature settings" menu.

some ideas:

"prefer hd movies" on/off
"prefered language" english
"show alternate movie version" on/off
or
"hide alternate movie versions"
"prefer local version" on/off (if network share available)
