Distinguish *.ts files (video format vs typescript)

Post by spooky »

When I'm searching through my videos with the default video filter, my *.ts video files mix with those written in typescript, can Everything distinguish them by default so I can only see the real video files?

A rough approach: filter on size, for example size larger than 500KB is considered to be a video file; smaller is typescript.
Search for:

Code: Select all

ext:ts size:>500K
There are more accurate ways, for example by using the width: property or any other video property. But that requires inspecting the files and that will be slow.
When these properties are indexed (Menu;Tools > Options > Indexes > Properties), results will be instant.
