Dano is a wrapper for FFmpeg that checksums the internal file streams
Summary: Dano is a wrapper for ffmpeg that checksums internal file streams of ffmpeg-compatible media files, allowing users to verify checksums later. It supports non-media path filtering, concurrent hashing, multiple checksum algorithms, and decoding streams before executing hash functions. Dano can also be used to find duplicate files based on their internal bitstreams and is compatible with FLAC files. It is currently tested on MacOS and Linux, with a Windows version likely to compile with minor changes.
