# PredicateType

Specifies the condition for whether two records are considered identical. You can set one of the following values.

`always` | Any two records are considered identical. Media Server discards any record that occurs within the minimum time interval of another record.
`default` | The condition for equivalency is determined by the default value for the track type. For example, the output records of an OCR engine are considered identical if they contain the same text. For a list of the default equivalency conditions for each output track, see Deduplicate Records in a Track.
`lua` | The condition(s) for equivalency are specified in a Lua script, which is provided by the LuaScript parameter.

Type: | String
Default: | `Default`, unless a Lua script is provided in the LuaScript parameter and then the default value is `Lua`
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | TaskName
Example: | `PredicateType=always`
