ingested twice

[Eric]

Kirk just a quick question. It looks like I have ingested the same files twice. I have files named "7-27-200711T-BrgL-Norton-01207_jpg.jpg.jpg"  and "7-27-200711T-BrgL-Norton-01207A_jpg.jpg.jpg". Is there a quick way to segregate the files with the A in them so that I can delete them? The are 3000 files so tagging each is very tedious.

Thanks

How did you get the names to end in .jpg.jpg.jpg?  Maybe you're using the {filename} variable instead of {filenamebase}?

But anyway, I would use the Find command, searching filenames only, for:

A_jpg

Then you'll be left with all of the duplicates selected.  Then you can move them or delete them.

Thanks Kirk that worked perfectly !  The .jpg.jpg.jpg is a goofy byproduct of a set of scripts that we use. Each of the scripts in the process appends a .jpg onto the file. After 4 years I don't even notice it.
