Review: Audio Comparer for Audio Test

Tuesday, November 22nd, 2011

We are now in the world full of entertainment. Sometime I feel flooded by entertainment files, such as music, movie, video, magazine and more.

When come to digital world, most of us tend to download than delete. Means we download files but seldom delete unwanted files, don’t you? A case study by Microsoft for Charter Communications shows the company has high number of duplicate files in the corporate network, approximate 21 terabytes!

I believe the duplicate file size will be larger when come to entertainment files. Music songs is one of them. Our terabytes hard drive could handle a million songs if fully utilize it. How many disk space have you waste there? You probably can’t answer without audio test software.

What is Audio Comparer ?

Audio Comparer help you do audio test and compare on most of your audio files: MP3, MP2, MP1, WMA, AIF, WAV, WavPack, FLAC, APE, AAC, and OGG. It not only compare but help you sort in the way you want.

The most advance feature of Audio Comparer is it recognize the sound of the file regardless of its codec or bit rate! Yes, not compare the file tags or file size, but the original audio content. Which mean it recognize joined audio files too! It shows percentage of match audio sound.

Audio Test in iTunes

The best part of Audio Comparer is it can compare your iTunes songs. I have thousands of song in iTunes. I admit that I have never listen to all songs. So let’s run an audio test in my iTunes playlist.

I open up my ABBA album, saw two files with same name. (more…)

Movie entertainment has become an important and enjoyable session in our daily life. No matter you download movies or buy DVD or even Blu-ray, we have same problem on organize huge amount of movies. You kept DVD in album folder, and movie files in external hard drive but never watch it back again?

Yes, remember those day when we flip through CD/DVD album and look at the DVD cover, What is the movie about? We forgot then put the album back. I have to admit I don’t have habit to keep movies! I delete watched movies most probably due to lack of a Movies Organizer.

 What is All My Movies ?

All My Movies is a Movie Database Software (by Bolide software) that help organize all your Movies collection, including hard-copy CD, DVD, Blu-ray or soft-copy AVI, MKV and many more.

Best part is You don’t need to type all movie details, just search movie title and it will crawl all related info (actors, rating, intro and photos) into your database!
