Description Detect more MIME types or all files, only with hash you can catch all files.

Request Please add support for more MIME types.

Thanks.

I would like if Music / Sound files would be added.

Would a simple search for doubled files (by the file name) also be possible?

No, the purpose of the hash is that you don't have to check if the file is really duplicated.

A little examples:

2023092600001.jpg = Neat_Donkey_Pic.jpg = holiday_pic_1.jpg cake_recipe.txt = Choclate_Cake.txt = Best_Cake_ever.txt

How you search doubles from name? With a hash you get unique "code" for each file, it is much easier to diff over a hash.
