I understand the setup. Here's my analysis
:
Project Overview
Project Overview
You're migrating Screen
pipe data from Mac to NAS. The workflow:
1.
screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
- One-time database schema migration:
Adds
install_id
column to all
synced tables (prevents ID collisions across
reinstalls)
Creates
_installs
registry table
Re
builds FTS (full-text search) tables with new
schema
Optional but recommended
- running
this on the NAS is
5-10x faster than letting
screenpipe_sync.sh
do
it inline
Idempotent (safe to re-run)
2.
screenpipe_sync.sh
- Daily sync script:
Copies
SQLite data from Mac (
~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite
) to NAS (
/Volumes/screenpipe/archive.db
)
Syncs vision tables (frames
, elements, OCR, UI events) and audio
tables (chunks, transcriptions, speakers)
Copies frame
data files and audio MP4s via rs
ync
Uses
install_id
(UUID) to handle multiple screenpipe installations
safely
Schema-drift tolerant (auto-add
s new columns)
Run per
date:
./screenpipe_sync.sh

heavy operation, then daily syncs are lightweight

Does this match your understanding

?

The
error occurs because the
video_chunks
table already has
install_id
but contains duplicate
(install_id, id)
combinations, violating the unique constraint the script is trying to create.

The error occurs because the
video_chunks
table already
has
install_id
data with duplicate
(install_id, id)
combinations. When
the script tries to create a unique index on these columns, SQLite rejects
it due to existing duplicates.
This likely happened
from a previous sync or partial migration. To diagnose,
you need to check the database:
bash
# Check what install_id values exist in video_chunks
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT DISTINCT install_id FROM video_chunks LIMIT 10;"
# Find the duplicate (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT install_id, id, COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks GROUP BY install_id, id HAVING COUNT(*) > 1 LIMIT 10;"
# Check total rows vs unique (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) as total, COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) as unique_combos FROM video_chunks;"
The fix depends on what
you find:
If duplicates have the same actual data
: Delete the duplicates keeping
one row per
(install_id, id)
If duplicates are from different syncs with different data
: You may need to use
INSERT OR REPLACE
logic or consolidate
the data
The migration script assumes clean data where
(install_id, id)
is unique. Your
database has pre-existing install_id
data that violates this assumption.

The issue is clear now:
video_chunks
has 400
9 rows but only 2607 unique
(install_id, id)
combinations. Each ID appears
2-4 times, which violates the unique constraint.
This likely happened from multiple
sync runs without proper deduplication. To fix this, you need
to remove the duplicate rows before the migration can proceed:
bash
# Delete duplicates, keeping the first occurrence for each (install_id, id)
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"
DELETE FROM video_chunks
WHERE rowid NOT IN (...

Project Overview
Project Overview
You're migrating Screen
pipe data from Mac to NAS. The workflow:
1.
screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
- One-time database schema migration:
Adds
install_id
column to all
synced tables (prevents ID collisions across
reinstalls)
Creates
_installs
registry table
Re
builds FTS (full-text search) tables with new
schema
Optional but recommended
- running
this on the NAS is
5-10x faster than letting
screenpipe_sync.sh
do
it inline
Idempotent (safe to re-run)
2.
screenpipe_sync.sh
- Daily sync script:
Copies
SQLite data from Mac (
~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite
) to NAS (
/Volumes/screenpipe/archive.db
)
Syncs vision tables (frames
, elements, OCR, UI events) and audio
tables (chunks, transcriptions, speakers)
Copies frame
data files and audio MP4s via rs
ync
Uses
install_id
(UUID) to handle multiple screenpipe installations
safely
Schema-drift tolerant (auto-add
s new columns)
Run per
date:
./screenpipe_sync.sh
(y
esterday) or
./screenpipe_sync.sh 2026-05-12
Current NAS State

archive.db

archive.db-bak

archive.db.bak-pre-installid
- 12
.9 GB (pre-migration backup)
db.sqlite
- 3.7 GB (appears
to be source DB already copied?)
data/
- empty (will hold
frame data by date)
logs/
- contains sync logs
Your Plan
Your
Plan
Run
screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
first to update the schema quickly on the NAS, then
run
screenpipe_sync.sh
daily to increment
ally move data from Mac to
NAS. This makes sense - the migration is the
heavy operation, then daily syncs are lightweight
.
Does this match your understanding
, or do you have questions about any part
?

The
error occurs because the
video_chunks
table already has
install_id
but contains duplicate
(install_id, id)
combinations, violating the unique constraint the script is trying to create.
Let
me check the database state to diagnose:

The error occurs because the

already has
install_id

columns, SQLite rejects it due to the
duplicates.
This likely happened from a previous sync
or partial migration. Let me check the

table

This likely happened from a previous sync that added
data without proper deduplication. Let me check the database to identify the duplicates:
Searched
sqlite3 in /volume1/screenpipe (*.sh)

The error occurs because the
video_chunks
table already
has
install_id
data with duplicate
(install_id, id)
combinations. When
the script tries to create a unique index on these columns, SQLite rejects
it due to existing duplicates.
This likely happened
from a previous sync or partial migration. To diagnose,
you need to check the database:
bash
# Check what install_id values exist in video_chunks
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT DISTINCT install_id FROM video_chunks LIMIT 10;"
# Find the duplicate (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT install_id, id, COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks GROUP BY install_id, id HAVING COUNT(*) > 1 LIMIT 10;"
# Check total rows vs unique (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) as total, COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) as unique_combos FROM video_chunks;"
The fix depends on what
you find:
If duplicates have the same actual data
: Delete the duplicates keeping
one row per
(install_id, id)
If duplicates are from different syncs with different data
: You may need to use
INSERT OR REPLACE
logic or consolidate
the data
The migration script assumes clean data where
(install_id, id)
is unique. Your
database has pre-existing install_id
data that violates this assumption.

screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
- One-time database schema migration:
Adds
install_id
column to all
synced tables (prevents ID collisions across
reinstalls)
Creates
_installs
registry table
Re
builds FTS (full-text search) tables with new
schema
Optional but recommended
- running
this on the NAS is
5-10x faster than letting
screenpipe_sync.sh
do
it inline
Idempotent (safe to re-run)
2.
screenpipe_sync.sh
- Daily sync script:
Copies
SQLite data from Mac (
~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite
) to NAS (
/Volumes/screenpipe/archive.db
)
Syncs vision tables (frames
, elements, OCR, UI events) and audio
tables (chunks, transcriptions, speakers)
Copies frame
data files and audio MP4s via rs
ync
Uses
install_id
(UUID) to handle multiple screenpipe installations
safely
Schema-drift tolerant (auto-add
s new columns)
Run per

The

install_id

(install_id, id)
combinations, violating the unique constraint the script is trying to create.

(install_id, id)
combinations. When
the script tries to create a unique index on these columns, SQLite rejects
it due to existing duplicates.
This likely happened
from a previous sync or partial migration. To diagnose,
you need to check the database:
bash
# Check what install_id values exist in video_chunks
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT DISTINCT install_id FROM video_chunks LIMIT 10;"
# Find the duplicate (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT install_id, id, COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks GROUP BY install_id, id HAVING COUNT(*) > 1 LIMIT 10;"
# Check total rows vs unique (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) as total, COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) as unique_combos FROM video_chunks;"
The fix depends on what
you find:
If duplicates have the same actual data
: Delete the duplicates keeping
one row per
(install_id, id)...

The migration script assumes clean data where

database has pre-existing install_id
data that violates this assumption.

Project Overview
Project Overview
You're migrating Screen
pipe data from Mac to NAS. The workflow:
1.
screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
- One-time database schema migration:
Adds
install_id
column to all
synced tables (prevents ID collisions across
reinstalls)
Creates
_installs
registry table
Re
builds FTS (full-text search) tables with new
schema
Optional but recommended
- running
this on the NAS is
5-10x faster than letting
screenpipe_sync.sh
do
it inline
Idempotent (safe to re-run)
2.
screenpipe_sync.sh
- Daily sync script:
Copies
SQLite data from Mac (
~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite
) to NAS (
/Volumes/screenpipe/archive.db
)
Syncs vision tables (frames
, elements, OCR, UI events) and audio
tables (chunks, transcriptions, speakers)
Copies frame
data files and audio MP4s via rs
ync
Uses
install_id
(UUID) to handle multiple screenpipe installations
safely
Schema-drift tolerant (auto-add
s new columns)
Run per
date:
./screenpipe_sync.sh
(y
esterday) or
./screenpipe_sync.sh 2026-05-12

Plan

run

daily to increment
ally move data from Mac to
NAS. This makes sense - the migration is the
heavy operation, then daily syncs are lightweight
.
Does this match your understanding
, or do you have questions about any part
?

sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT DISTINCT install_id FROM video_chunks LIMIT 10;"
# Find the duplicate (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT install_id, id, COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks GROUP BY install_id, id HAVING COUNT(*) > 1 LIMIT 10;"
# Check total rows vs unique (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) as total, COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) as unique_combos FROM video_chunks;"
The fix depends on what
you find:
If duplicates have the same actual data
: Delete the duplicates keeping
one row per
(install_id, id)
If duplicates are from different syncs with different data
: You may need to use
INSERT OR REPLACE
logic or consolidate
the data
The migration script assumes clean data where
(install_id, id)
is unique. Your
database has pre-existing install_id
data that violates this assumption.

get familiar with the project. The idea is to copy the data from mac to nas (here). I am tryign to update the database using
@
screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
and then run
@
screenpipe_sync.sh
for a day to move the data. Review and see is you understand everything.

Project Overview
Project Overview
You're migrating Screen
pipe data from Mac to NAS. The workflow:
1.
screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
- One-time database schema migration:
Adds
install_id
column to all
synced tables (prevents ID collisions across
reinstalls)
Creates
_installs
registry table
Re
builds FTS (full-text search) tables with new
schema
Optional but recommended
- running
this on the NAS is
5-10x faster than letting
screenpipe_sync.sh
do
it inline
Idempotent (safe to re-run)
2.
screenpipe_sync.sh
- Daily sync script:
Copies
SQLite data from Mac (
~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite
) to NAS (
/Volumes/screenpipe/archive.db
)
Syncs vision tables (frames
, elements, OCR, UI events) and audio
tables (chunks, transcriptions, speakers)
Copies frame
data files and audio MP4s via rs
ync
Uses
install_id
(UUID) to handle multiple screenpipe installations
safely
Schema-drift tolerant (auto-add
s new columns)
Run per
date:
./screenpipe_sync.sh
(y
esterday) or
./screenpipe_sync.sh 2026-05-12

run

heavy operation, then daily syncs are lightweight
.
Does this match your understanding
, or do you have questions about any part
?

table already has
install_id

(install_id, id)

data with duplicate
(install_id, id)
combinations. When
the script tries to create a unique index on these columns, SQLite rejects
it due to existing duplicates.
This likely happened
from a previous sync or partial migration. To diagnose,
you need to check the database:
bash
# Check what install_id values exist in video_chunks
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT DISTINCT install_id FROM video_chunks LIMIT 10;"
# Find the duplicate (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT install_id, id, COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks GROUP BY install_id, id HAVING COUNT(*) > 1 LIMIT 10;"
# Check total rows vs unique (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) as total, COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) as unique_combos FROM video_chunks;"
The fix depends on what
you find:
If duplicates have the same actual data
: Delete the duplicates keeping
one row per
(install_id, id)
If duplicates are from different syncs with different data
: You may need to use
INSERT OR REPLACE
logic or consolidate
the data
The migration script assumes clean data where
(install_id, id)
is unique. Your
database has pre-existing install_id
data that violates this assumption.

The issue is clear now:
video_chunks
has 400
9 rows but only 2607 unique
(install_id, id)
combinations. Each ID appears
2-4 times, which violates the unique constraint.
This likely happened from multiple
sync runs without proper deduplication. To fix this, you need
to remove the duplicate rows before the migration can proceed:
bash
# Delete duplicates, keeping the first occurrence for each (install_id, id)
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"
DELETE FROM video_chunks
WHERE rowid NOT IN (
SELECT MIN(rowid)
FROM video_chunks
GROUP BY install_id, id
);
"
# Verify cleanup
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks;"
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) FROM video_chunks;"
After this
, both counts should match (2607),
and you can re-run the migration script:

Project Overview
Project Overview
You're migrating Screen
pipe data from Mac to NAS. The workflow:
1.
screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
- One-time database schema migration:
Adds
install_id
column to all
synced tables (prevents ID collisions across
reinstalls)
Creates
_installs
registry table
Re
builds FTS (full-text search) tables with new
schema
Optional but recommended
- running
this on the NAS is
5-10x faster than letting
screenpipe_sync.sh
do
it inline
Idempotent (safe to re-run)
2.
screenpipe_sync.sh
- Daily sync script:
Copies
SQLite data from Mac (
~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite
) to NAS (
/Volumes/screenpipe/archive.db
)
Syncs vision tables (frames
, elements, OCR, UI events) and audio
tables (chunks, transcriptions, speakers)
Copies frame
data files and audio MP4s via rs
ync
Uses
install_id
(UUID) to handle multiple screenpipe installations
safely
Schema-drift tolerant (auto-add
s new columns)

The error occurs because the

data with duplicate
(install_id, id)
combinations. When
the script tries to create a unique index on these columns, SQLite rejects
it due to existing duplicates.
This likely happened

you need to check the database:
bash
# Check what install_id values exist in video_chunks
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT DISTINCT install_id FROM video_chunks LIMIT 10;"
# Find the duplicate (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT install_id, id, COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks GROUP BY install_id, id HAVING COUNT(*) > 1 LIMIT 10;"
# Check total rows vs unique (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) as total, COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) as unique_combos FROM video_chunks;"
The fix depends on what
you find:
If duplicates have the same actual data
: Delete the duplicates keeping
one row per
(install_id, id)
If duplicates are from different syncs with different data
: You may need to use
INSERT OR REPLACE
logic or consolidate
the data
The migration script assumes clean data where
(install_id, id)
is unique. Your
database has pre-existing install_id
data that violates this assumption.

The issue is clear now:
video_chunks
has 400
9 rows but only 2607 unique
(install_id, id)
combinations. Each ID appears
2-4 times, which violates the unique constraint.
This likely happened from multiple
sync runs without proper deduplication. To fix this, you need
to remove the duplicate rows before the migration can proceed:
bash
# Delete duplicates, keeping the first occurrence for each (install_id, id)
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"
DELETE FROM video_chunks
WHERE rowid NOT IN (
SELECT MIN(rowid)
FROM video_chunks
GROUP BY install_id, id
);
"
# Verify cleanup
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks;"
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) FROM video_chunks;"
After this
, both counts should match (2607),
and you can re-run the migration script:
bash
/volume1/screenpipe/screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
You may
need to repeat this for other tables if they
have the same issue. The migration script
processes tables in order:
video_chunks frames elements
ocr_text ui_events meetings
(vision) then
speakers speaker_embeddings audio_chunks audio_transcriptions
audio_tags
(audio).

The error occurs because the
ocr_text
table doesn't have an
id
column, but the script tries to create a
unique index on
(install_id, id)
. The script assumes all
tables have an
id
column, but
ocr_text
likely has a different primary key structure.
Let me check the ocr_text table schema in your source
database:
Searched
ocr_text in /volume1/screenpipe (*.sh)
Thought
for 2s
The error occurs because the script tries to create a unique
index on
ocr_text(install_id, id)
, but the
ocr_text
table doesn't have an
id
column. The script assumes
all tables have an
id
column as
their primary key, but
ocr_text
likely has a different structure
.
Check the actual schema of your
ocr_text
table:
bash
sqlite3
~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite
"PRAGMA table_info(ocr_text);"
This will show what columns exist
. Based on the script's
usage,
ocr_text
likely uses
frame_id
as a foreign key and may not
have its own
id
primary key (
it might use SQLite's implicit
rowid
).
The fix would be to modify
the script to handle tables without an
id
column. Options:
Skip
the unique index for tables without
id
and use a different constraint
Use
rowid
instead of
id
for tables that don
't have an explicit
id
column

Project Overview
Project Overview
You're migrating Screen
pipe data from Mac to NAS. The workflow:
1.
screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
- One-time database schema migration:
Adds
install_id
column to all
synced tables (prevents ID collisions across
reinstalls)
Creates
_installs
registry table
Re
builds FTS (full-text search) tables with new
schema
Optional but recommended
- running
this on the NAS is
5-10x faster than letting
screenpipe_sync.sh
do
it inline
Idempotent (safe to re-run)
2.
screenpipe_sync.sh
- Daily sync script:
Copies
SQLite data from Mac (
~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite
) to NAS (
/Volumes/screenpipe/archive.db
)
Syncs vision tables (frames
, elements, OCR, UI events) and audio
tables (chunks, transcriptions, speakers)
Copies frame
data files and audio MP4s via rs
ync
Uses
install_id
(UUID) to handle multiple screenpipe installations
safely
Schema-drift tolerant (auto-add
s new columns)
Run per
date:
./screenpipe_sync.sh

esterday) or
./screenpipe_sync.sh 2026-05-12

The
error occurs because the
video_chunks
table already has
install_id
but contains duplicate
(install_id, id)
combinations, violating the unique constraint the script is trying to create.

data with duplicate
(install_id, id)
combinations. When
the script tries to create a unique index on these columns, SQLite rejects
it due to existing duplicates.
This likely happened
from a previous sync or partial migration. To diagnose,
you need to check the database:
bash
# Check what install_id values exist in video_chunks
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT DISTINCT install_id FROM video_chunks LIMIT 10;"
# Find the duplicate (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT install_id, id, COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks GROUP BY install_id, id HAVING COUNT(*) > 1 LIMIT 10;"
# Check total rows vs unique (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) as total, COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) as unique_combos FROM video_chunks;"
The fix depends on what
you find:
If duplicates have the same actual data
: Delete the duplicates keeping
one row per
(install_id, id)
If duplicates are from different syncs with different data
: You may need to use
INSERT OR REPLACE
logic or consolidate
the data
The migration script assumes clean data where
(install_id, id)
is unique. Your
database has pre-existing install_id
data that violates this assumption.

The error occurs because the

table already
has
install_id
data with duplicate
(install_id, id)
combinations. When
the script tries to create a unique index on these columns, SQLite rejects
it due to existing duplicates.
This likely happened
from a previous sync or partial migration. To diagnose,
you need to check the database:
bash
# Check what install_id values exist in video_chunks
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT DISTINCT install_id FROM video_chunks LIMIT 10;"
# Find the duplicate (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT install_id, id, COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks GROUP BY install_id, id HAVING COUNT(*) > 1 LIMIT 10;"
# Check total rows vs unique (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) as total, COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) as unique_combos FROM video_chunks;"
The fix depends on what
you find:
If duplicates have the same actual data
: Delete the duplicates keeping
one row per
(install_id, id)
If duplicates are from different syncs with different data
: You may need to use
INSERT OR REPLACE
logic or consolidate
the data
The migration script assumes clean data where
(install_id, id)
is unique. Your
database has pre-existing install_id
data that violates this assumption.

The issue is clear now:
video_chunks
has 400
9 rows but only 2607 unique
(install_id, id)
combinations. Each ID appears
2-4 times, which violates the unique constraint.
This likely happened from multiple
sync runs without proper deduplication. To fix this, you need
to remove the duplicate rows before the migration can proceed:
bash
# Delete duplicates, keeping the first occurrence for each (install_id, id)
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"
DELETE FROM video_chunks
WHERE rowid NOT IN (
SELECT MIN(rowid)
FROM video_chunks
GROUP BY install_id, id
);
"
# Verify cleanup
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks;"
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) FROM video_chunks;"
After this
, both counts should match (2607),
and you can re-run the migration script:

The
error occurs because the
video_chunks
table already has
install_id
but contains duplicate
(install_id, id)
combinations, violating the unique constraint the script is trying to create.
Let
me check the database state to diagnose:...

Data Migration and Sync Review

get familiar with the project. The idea is to copy the data from mac to nas (here). I am tryign to update the database using
@
screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh

@

for a day to move the data. Review and see is you understand everything.

Project Overview
Project Overview
You're migrating Screen
pipe data from Mac to NAS. The workflow:
1.
screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
- One-time database schema migration:
Adds
install_id
column to all
synced tables (prevents ID collisions across
reinstalls)
Creates
_installs
registry table
Re
builds FTS (full-text search) tables with new
schema
Optional but recommended
- running
this on the NAS is
5-10x faster than letting
screenpipe_sync.sh
do
it inline
Idempotent (safe to re-run)
2.
screenpipe_sync.sh
- Daily sync script:
Copies
SQLite data from Mac (
~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite
) to NAS (
/Volumes/screenpipe/archive.db
)
Syncs vision tables (frames
, elements, OCR, UI events) and audio
tables (chunks, transcriptions, speakers)
Copies frame
data files and audio MP4s via rs
ync
Uses
install_id
(UUID) to handle multiple screenpipe installations
safely
Schema-drift tolerant (auto-add
s new columns)
Run per
date:

run

heavy operation, then daily syncs are lightweight
.
Does this match your understanding
, or do you have questions about any part
?

combinations. When
the script tries to create a unique index on these columns, SQLite rejects
it due to existing duplicates.
This likely happened
from a previous sync or partial migration. To diagnose,
you need to check the database:
bash
# Check what install_id values exist in video_chunks
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT DISTINCT install_id FROM video_chunks LIMIT 10;"
# Find the duplicate (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT install_id, id, COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks GROUP BY install_id, id HAVING COUNT(*) > 1 LIMIT 10;"
# Check total rows vs unique (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) as total, COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) as unique_combos FROM video_chunks;"
The fix depends on what
you find:
If duplicates have the same actual data
: Delete the duplicates keeping
one row per
(install_id, id)
If duplicates are from different syncs with different data
: You may need to use
INSERT OR REPLACE
logic or consolidate
the data
The migration script assumes clean data where
(install_id, id)
is unique. Your
database has pre-existing install_id
data that violates this assumption.

The issue is clear now:
video_chunks
has 400
9 rows but only 2607 unique
(install_id, id)
combinations. Each ID appears
2-4 times, which violates the unique constraint.
This likely happened from multiple
sync runs without proper deduplication. To fix this, you need
to remove the duplicate rows before the migration can proceed:
bash
# Delete duplicates, keeping the first occurrence for each (install_id, id)
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db

DELETE FROM video_chunks
WHERE rowid NOT IN (
SELECT MIN(rowid)...

The issue is clear now:

9 rows but only 2607 unique
(install_id, id)
combinations. Each ID appears
2-4 times, which violates the unique constraint.
This likely happened from multiple
sync runs without proper deduplication. To fix this, you need
to remove the duplicate rows before the migration can proceed:
bash
# Delete duplicates, keeping the first occurrence for each (install_id, id)
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"
DELETE FROM video_chunks
WHERE rowid NOT IN (
SELECT MIN(rowid)

# Verify cleanup
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks;"
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) FROM video_chunks;"
After this
, both counts should match (2607),
and you can re-run the migration script:
bash
/volume1/screenpipe/screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
You may
need to repeat this for other tables if they
have the same issue. The migration script
processes tables in order:
video_chunks frames elements
ocr_text ui_events meetings
(vision) then
speakers speaker_embeddings audio_chunks audio_transcriptions
audio_tags

The error occurs because the

table doesn't have an
id
column, but the script tries to create a
unique index on
(install_id, id)
. The script assumes all
tables have an
id
column, but
ocr_text
likely has a different primary key structure.
Let me check the ocr_text table schema in your source
database:

Project Overview
Project Overview
You're migrating Screen
pipe data from Mac to NAS. The workflow:
1.
screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
- One-time database schema migration:
Adds
install_id
column to all
synced tables (prevents ID collisions across
reinstalls)
Creates
_installs
registry table
Re
builds FTS (full-text search) tables with new
schema
Optional but recommended
- running
this on the NAS is
5-10x faster than letting
screenpipe_sync.sh
do
it inline
Idempotent (safe to re-run)
2.
screenpipe_sync.sh
- Daily sync script:
Copies
SQLite data from Mac (
~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite
) to NAS (
/Volumes/screenpipe/archive.db
)
Syncs vision tables (frames
, elements, OCR, UI events) and audio
tables (chunks, transcriptions, speakers)
Copies frame
data files and audio MP4s via rs
ync
Uses
install_id
(UUID) to handle multiple screenpipe installations
safely
Schema-drift tolerant (auto-add
s new columns)

Does this match your understanding

it due to existing duplicates.
This likely happened
from a previous sync or partial migration. To diagnose,
you need to check the database:
bash
# Check what install_id values exist in video_chunks
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT DISTINCT install_id FROM video_chunks LIMIT 10;"
# Find the duplicate (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT install_id, id, COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks GROUP BY install_id, id HAVING COUNT(*) > 1 LIMIT 10;"
# Check total rows vs unique (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) as total, COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) as unique_combos FROM video_chunks;"
The fix depends on what
you find:
If duplicates have the same actual data
: Delete the duplicates keeping
one row per
(install_id, id)
If duplicates are from different syncs with different data
: You may need to use
INSERT OR REPLACE
logic or consolidate
the data
The migration script assumes clean data where
(install_id, id)
is unique. Your
database has pre-existing install_id
data that violates this assumption.

The issue is clear now:
video_chunks
has 400
9 rows but only 2607 unique
(install_id, id)
combinations. Each ID appears
2-4 times, which violates the unique constraint.
This likely happened from multiple
sync runs without proper deduplication. To fix this, you need
to remove the duplicate rows before the migration can proceed:
bash
# Delete duplicates, keeping the first occurrence for each (install_id, id)
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"
DELETE FROM video_chunks
WHERE rowid NOT IN (
SELECT MIN(rowid)
FROM video_chunks
GROUP BY install_id, id
);
"
# Verify cleanup
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks;"
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) FROM video_chunks;"
After this
, both counts should match (2607),
and you can re-run the migration script:
bash
/volume1/screenpipe/screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
You may
need to repeat this for other tables if they
have the same issue. The migration script
processes tables in order:
video_chunks frames elements
ocr_text ui_events meetings
(vision) then
speakers speaker_embeddings audio_chunks audio_transcriptions
audio_tags
(audio).

The error occurs because the
ocr_text
table doesn't have an
id
column, but the script tries to create a
unique index on
(install_id, id)
. The script assumes all
tables have an
id
column, but
ocr_text
likely has a different primary key structure.
Let me check the ocr_text table schema in your source
database:
Searched
ocr_text in /volume1/screenpipe (*.sh)
Thought

The error occurs because the script tries to create a unique
index on
ocr_text(install_id, id)
, but the
ocr_text
table doesn't have an
id
column. The script assumes
all tables have an
id
column as
their primary key, but
ocr_text
likely has a different structure
.
Check the actual schema of your
ocr_text
table:
bash
sqlite3
~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite
"PRAGMA table_info(ocr_text);"
This will show what columns exist
. Based on the script's
usage,
ocr_text
likely uses
frame_id
as a foreign key and may not
have its own
id
primary key (
it might use SQLite's implicit
rowid
).
The fix would be to modify
the script to handle tables without an
id
column. Options:
Skip
the unique index for tables without
id
and use a different constraint
Use
rowid
instead of
id
for tables that don
't have an explicit
id
column
What does
the schema show for
ocr_text
?

The
ocr_text
table has no
id
column - its primary key is
frame_id
. The script incorrectly
assumes all tables have an
id
column when creating the unique index.
The fix is in
screenpipe_sync.sh
around line 363
-370. The loop needs to check if the
table has an
id
column before creating the index:
bash
# Re-run install_id + index setup so freshly-created tables get them too.

Project Overview
Project Overview
You're migrating Screen
pipe data from Mac to NAS. The workflow:
1.
screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
- One-time database schema migration:
Adds
install_id
column to all
synced tables (prevents ID collisions across
reinstalls)
Creates
_installs
registry table
Re
builds FTS (full-text search) tables with new
schema
Optional but recommended
- running
this on the NAS is
5-10x faster than letting
screenpipe_sync.sh
do
it inline
Idempotent (safe to re-run)
2.
screenpipe_sync.sh
- Daily sync script:
Copies
SQLite data from Mac (
~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite
) to NAS (
/Volumes/screenpipe/archive.db
)
Syncs vision tables (frames
, elements, OCR, UI events) and audio
tables (chunks, transcriptions, speakers)
Copies frame
data files and audio MP4s via rs
ync
Uses
install_id
(UUID) to handle multiple screenpipe installations
safely
Schema-drift tolerant (auto-add
s new columns)
Run per
date:

heavy operation, then daily syncs are lightweight

Does this match your understanding

The error occurs because the
video_chunks
table already
has
install_id
data with duplicate
(install_id, id)
combinations. When
the script tries to create a unique index on these columns, SQLite rejects
it due to existing duplicates.
This likely happened
from a previous sync or partial migration. To diagnose,
you need to check the database:
bash
# Check what install_id values exist in video_chunks
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT DISTINCT install_id FROM video_chunks LIMIT 10;"
# Find the duplicate (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT install_id, id, COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks GROUP BY install_id, id HAVING COUNT(*) > 1 LIMIT 10;"
# Check total rows vs unique (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) as total, COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) as unique_combos FROM video_chunks;"
The fix depends on what
you find:
If duplicates have the same actual data
: Delete the duplicates keeping
one row per
(install_id, id)
If duplicates are from different syncs with different data
: You may need to use
INSERT OR REPLACE
logic or consolidate
the data
The migration script assumes clean data where
(install_id, id)
is unique. Your
database has pre-existing install_id
data that violates this assumption.

The
error occurs because the
video_chunks
table already has
install_id
but contains duplicate
(install_id, id)
combinations, violating the unique constraint the script is trying to create.

This likely happened
from a previous sync or partial migration. To diagnose,
you need to check the database:
bash
# Check what install_id values exist in video_chunks
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT DISTINCT install_id FROM video_chunks LIMIT 10;"
# Find the duplicate (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT install_id, id, COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks GROUP BY install_id, id HAVING COUNT(*) > 1 LIMIT 10;"
# Check total rows vs unique (install_id, id) combinations
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) as total, COUNT(DISTINCT install_id || '|' || id) as unique_combos FROM video_chunks;"
The fix depends on what
you find:
If duplicates have the same actual data
: Delete the duplicates keeping
one row per
(install_id, id)
If duplicates are from different syncs with different data
: You may need to use
INSERT OR REPLACE
logic or consolidate
the data
The migration script assumes clean data where
(install_id, id)
is unique. Your
database has pre-existing install_id
data that violates this assumption.

Data Migration and Sync Review
1h

get familiar with the project. The idea is to copy the data from mac to nas (here). I am tryign to update the database using
@
screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
and then run
@
screenpipe_sync.sh
for a day to move the data. Review and see is you understand everything.

I'll read the two scripts and
explore the project structure to understand the data migration
setup.

I understand the setup. Here's my analysis
:
Project Overview
Project Overview
You're migrating Screen
pipe data from Mac to NAS. The workflow:
1.
screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
- One-time database schema migration:
Adds
install_id
column to all
synced tables (prevents ID collisions across
reinstalls)
Creates
_installs
registry table
Re
builds FTS (full-text search) tables with new
schema
Optional but recommended
- running
this on the NAS is
5-10x faster than letting
screenpipe_sync.sh
do
it inline
Idempotent (safe to re-run)
2.
screenpipe_sync.sh
- Daily sync script:
Copies
SQLite data from Mac (
~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite
) to NAS (
/Volumes/screenpipe/archive.db
)
Syncs vision tables (frames
, elements, OCR, UI events) and audio
tables (chunks, transcriptions, speakers)
Copies frame
data files and audio MP4s via rs
ync
Uses
install_id

The issue is clear now:
video_chunks
has 400
9 rows but only 2607 unique
(install_id, id)
combinations. Each ID appears
2-4 times, which violates the unique constraint.
This likely happened from multiple
sync runs without proper deduplication. To fix this, you need
to remove the duplicate rows before the migration can proceed:
bash
# Delete duplicates, keeping the first occurrence for each (install_id, id)
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"
DELETE FROM video_chunks
WHERE rowid NOT IN (
SELECT MIN(rowid)
FROM video_chunks
GROUP BY install_id, id
);
"
# Verify cleanup
sqlite3
/volume1/screenpipe/archive.db
"SELECT COUNT(*) FROM video_chunks;"...
