Tracks duplicate in personal playlist

Hi, Adam.  I am having the same problem, only with a hand picked playlist.  Many of my songs have duplicated so that instead of 50 or so songs total, I now have over 1,000.  The ones that did not duplicate are rarely played now.

I have tried hand deleting the duplicates but it is taking forever and is just too tedious. Help!  Thanks, Jackie

Ok, I guess that's what I'll have to do.  Let me know if the engineers have any thoughts, and I'll keep my eye on the numbers and my actions to see if I can figure out the problem from my end.

@jackie2210 What is the name of the playlist this happened with?

Can you please send me a screenshot of what you're seeing as well?

Thanks for working with me on this. 🤝

The playlist is one I created 1 song at a time called "Songs for School".  I included a screenshot though I can't find a way to show the problem that way.  It's just that I have around 50 - 75 songs, but somehow this turned into over 1,000 songs through repeated duplications.  (See the total 1,062 in the pic).

Would love a way to fix it that doesn't take all day.  Also, I'm wondering if I was doing something to cause it to duplicate.

Thanks, Adam!Screenshot 2022-07-16 09.04.05.png

@jackie2210 I've escalated your experience over to our engineering team.

In the meantime, I think the easiest thing to do would be to start fresh with creating a brand new playlist again with those same 50-75 tracks you originally used.

If you do end up creating a new playlist, please keep an eye out if any duplicates start to appear again.

Please make note of the date/time as soon as you notice any duplicate tracks appearing on the playlist.

Than you for reporting this!

I was creating a playlist and when I got to around a 100 songs the next day I noticed the song count jumped up to around 1500 songs and they are all duplicates of the 100 songs. The same original playlist of songs I created are created over and over. Looks like 15 times by number count. I didn't do anything. It did it on it's own. Not the end of the world I just thought it was strange.

Its not that big of a deal. Only drawback is when you add a new song it goes to the end of the list 1500 deep. I'm not a complainer. It's all good. Was just curious why so it didn't happen again. A screenshot wouldn't do much. Here is a link. Like I said no big deal. Blues Playlist

Thanks for following up with that information, @TexasRetroGuy.

Duplicate tracks showing in playlist:

I've escalated your experience over to our engineering team.

In the meantime, you can always create a new playlist again with the same 100 tracks you initially used if the currently playlist containing the duplicates becomes bothersome.

If you do end up creating a new playlist, please keep an eye out if any duplicates start to appear again.

Also please make note of the date/time as soon as you notice any duplicate tracks appearing on the playlist.

Than you for reporting this!

New tracks on playlist appear at the end of the list:

If you'd like to see a feature that allows you to add new tracks to the top of your playlist, I recommend upvoting this existing feature request with a ❤️Adding a TOP OF PLAYLIST feature

I am adding songs to my collection. I add about 50 songs. Then all of a sudden I have over 100 songs in my list. I review the songs and somehow Pandora has added the same 50 songs to my playlist a second time. 

I have to delete my entire collection and start again. I have done this 4 times and it happens every time. 

I just signed up for Pandora and I am about to quit it. 

In addition, it allows me to add duplicates to my collection. NO OTHER AUDIO STREAMING SERVICE ALLOWS THIS! 

 

Pandora, you are about to lose a customer because of poor programming. 

 

Is there any way to fix this issue?
