There is a bug in the distinct: function that causes the first file to be left out if multiple criteria are specified (i.e. distinct:name;md5)
That is planned to be fixed in the next update.

Your workaround -- using a single criterion -- is not affected by that bug.

Re: Finding unique files between 2 folders based on hash.
I think the idea is to compare files, just based on the hash, so 'file1.txt' and 'copy of file1.txt' are considered the same, even when their names differ.
I vaguely remember that Beyond Compare will always include the name when comparing. Or is it possible to ignore the names?
