I think I have quite a few items in my library with both a 720p and 1080p version stored on disk. I’d like to find them but can’t figure out how to do that through the interface. Is there a way? The closest I found was creating a collection where “Episode Duplicate” is true - but that is still like finding a needle in a haystack. I have to click through seasons, look at each episode’s info and see if theres’ two files.

I know there’s a sqlite database com.plexapp.plugins.library.db but I can’t figure out where in there I’d find that info.

The Python script looks very promising in going to play around with that. Thanks.
