Adding books Duplicate list, Title & Author?

Is there any way when merging two large libraries to set the Duplicates list to only flag up books with the same Title AND Author, and not just Title? As this creates some huge lists that have to be sorted manually.

@Vortex - I would use the Find Duplicates PI - Library Duplicates feature (it compares books in two libraries based on title and name) before merging the two libraries - hibernate the duplicates before doing the merge
