[Question] Does the CLI application support Cache for Video subcommand?

Open jamesonknutson opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

I couldn't find any documentation on this after searching other issues / reading FAQ, but after playing with the application a little bit I noticed that the GUI application finishes it's workloads significantly faster than the CLI version when searching for duplicate Video Files. I know that the GUI application has the ability to use a caching system to avoid having to redo hashes for Videos it already hashed previously, does the CLI application do the same? Or perhaps there is a CLI argument I am missing when executing the command?

Here is an example of what I am executing from CLI:

.\cli.exe video --file-to-save .\cli-results.txt --directories C:\Users\J\Videos

I do not have specific benchmarks on time taken / total entries scanned, but I can get those benchmarks for a comparison if needed.

Thanks!

Yes, it seems to have caching. It is documented

But it is implemented very weird
