Hey All,

Just throwing this out there for feedback and gauging if there's any public interest in a personal project of mine.

I'm a member of 5 or so music pools, each have their strengths and weaknesses. Every week I download all the content from their sites and review the recently downloaded stuff when commuting to work, etc. It's becoming a nightmare to organize it all... so I'm starting fresh.

Unfortunately, Serato doesn't have a library management tool. Something that can loosely detect duplicates (not exact file names, etc) is what I would need since every pool labels their tracks differently... So Im building a tool...

I need a tool that will:
1) Let me assign categories from the Pool Websites to my Serato Crates
2) Pick and Choose what songs are imported to Serato and what to exclude
3) Detect duplicates loosely - Meaning by Artist and Title, not the exact filename

Let me show you what I whipped up...

1) Overview - Here I can see all the pools I collect music from. It tells me statistics of my progress with my library and of any Pool Categories that haven't been mapped to a Serato Crate

2) Pool Overview - This tells me information specifically about the selected pool. Such as how many songs I have to review from this Pool, total duplicates, total accepted, total rejected, etc

3) Genre Pairs - This is a simple control to assign Pool Categories to Serato DJ Crates. This is just to assist you with organizing your tracks as you review them.

4) Pool Copies - This will show you all the tracks that match EXACTLY to other tracks. In my case, ClubKillers posts the same song in Top40 and CK Exclusives, and this fills my harddrives very quickly with no easy way to tell if I have the track already. This tool will identify all the tracks you have exact copied of.

5) Pool Copies Review - Here I can manage the tracks. In this scenario I'm reviewing an exact duplicate of a song (as described in #4). I can:
- Accept, which will add the track into a Serato DJ crate
- Reject, which will keep the track file but will NOT place into Serato DJ crate
- Select Duplicate, which will let you select another track that you believe is the exact same. This is useful if you accept a track, but don't want the same file twice.
- Library Dropdown, This will let you OVERRIDE the Pool Category configuration previously set in #3 so you can have tracks placed into more suitable locations.

6) Pool Duplicates - Same as #4, except this list matches on Artist - Title instead of Filename.

7) Pool Duplicates Review - Same as #5, except with all tracks seen as duplicated in #6.

9) Every Duplicate across ALL pools: imgur.com

10) Example of Accept, Reject, Duplicate functionality: imgur.com

Right now this is very specific to my situation, as I horde music, but I figured I'd share with the community anyways.

Anyways, Let me know what you think!

Cheers Mates!
