<\/p>\nShufflizer automatically removes duplicates from your playlist.\u00a0 When it does this, it lets you know with an alert.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It was simpler for me to make Shufflizer delete duplicates than to make it accommodate them.\u00a0 A fundamental motivation for Shufflizer is to not hear songs repeated.\u00a0 Having the same song more than once in a playlist undermines this.<\/p>\n

Probably most Spotify users don’t have local files in their playlists, or even know what they are.\u00a0 Local files are mp3’s you have on your PC that you want Spotify to play.\u00a0 They are not supported by the underlying technology upon which Shufflizer is built, the Spotify Web API, so I must remove them.<\/p>\n
Shufflizer isn’t immediately changing your playlist in Spotify when you see either of these alerts, and it certainly isn’t going to delete any files from your PC.\u00a0 Shufflizer is making these adjustments to the copy of the playlist it is loading for you to edit.\u00a0 A playlist is just a track listing, not the songs themselves, and no changes to your playlist are saved until you upload.\u00a0 Don’t like these automatic actions?\u00a0 Don’t upload.<\/p>\n
