My music library is a bit of a mess; I have a tonne of music on a (512 GB) SD card in my MP3 player. Some is in the cloud (rclone, mountable, so can be explored by file explorer and other tools), some is there with a slightly different naming syntax, some isn’t there at all.

Finding dupes is easy. But I’d like to find a fairly straightforward way to locate folders/files that are on my SD card that aren’t in the cloud under any name.

Why not just upload everything and windows explorer/ teracopy etc will check if I want to overwrite existing folders? Because on the SD, a file may be be:

‘RHCP/2016 - The Getaway/01 The Getaway.mp3’,

and on the cloud:

‘RHCP - The Getaway/01 - The Getaway.mp3’.

So I won’t be prompted , I’ll end up wasting bandwidth on uploading duplicate data (my collection is enormous), and then have to clean it all with Dupeguru anyway…

Anyone have a tool for this usage case? Cheers guys n gals
