Hi, I was able to add "MD5 Audio" column to around 20,000 tracks. I can see some of them are duplicated since they have the same "MD5 Audio" data. In mp3tag editor, is there a way of showing only these tracks with the same "md5 audio" tag and remove the duplicates? Thanks. ![image](https://community.mp3tag.de/uploads/default/original/2X/7/730d51a451c35369b3e16a1e849d67bc6a24d3dd.png) ---

No. You can only sort field and then visually compare the field contents. You could write an export script that exports the relevant data as a csv file and then import that into Excel or Access and then let those programs compare the various records with each other. ---
