Inputs:

Observed: Tracks 1 and 7 are both Stand Atlantic - Skinny Dipping Expected: No tracks repeat in playlist

Tracks appear to have different IDs, which may make this a little trickier to solve, but it would be a welcome improvement.

If the track-id is different - then duplication is at spotify too; Did you confirm the issue @RyanRussell00 btw?

RyanRussell00 commented 3 years ago

@astriskit I have not confirmed this issue. Does the Spotify documentation say that if the track-id is different but the tracks are the same, it's a Spotify thing?

@RyanRussell00 it seems like this/duplication is a thing; Found something over the internet that kinda deals with similar thing - https://developer.spotify.com/community/showcase/spotify-dedup/

@astriskit Thanks for that. It seems as if it's a Spotify issue if the tracks are released twice, and there are apps such as Spotify Dedup that can remove duplicates. But I don't think this is a feature we will be implementing.
