<div class="section" id="fields">
<span id="id1"></span><h2>Fields<a class="headerlink" href="#fields" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>Fields are groups of words which each represent a significant part of the whole name. This concept
is sifnificant in music file names, where we often have names like “My Artist - a very long title
with many many words”.</p>
<p>This title has 10 words. If you run as scan with a bit of tolerance, lets say 90%, youll be able
to find a dupe that has only one “many” in the song title. However, you would also get false
duplicates from a title like “My Giraffe - a very long title with many many words”, which is of
course a very different song and it doesnt make sense to match them.</p>
<p>When matching by fields, each field (separated by “-“) is considered as a separate string to match
independently. After all fields are matched, the lowest result is kept. In the “Giraffe” example we
gave, the result would be 50% instead of 90% in normal mode.</p>
