PuffyToesToo Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Would it be feasible to have a dialogue box that alerts you when you are about to add an item to a playlist that already exists on that playlist? Thanks. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 This sort of thing is typically allowed with playlists though, right? I don't recall seeing any other app requiring a confirmation like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuffyToesToo Posted December 6, 2018 Author Share Posted December 6, 2018 My experience has been that, yes, you can add the same item as often as you want to playlists. I have several TV show playlists (For example, all Christmas episodes of various shows) which can contain hundreds of episodes. When I am meticulously creating them by searching for said episodes, and come back to continue working on one sometime later, I can forget where I left off, and the confirmation dialogue would simply be a nice feature to have for this purpose.

DerrickM Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Didn't see this request anywhere so... I would like to see a prompt when I try to add a song to a playlist that already contains that song. Something like: "This song is already in this playlist, Add anyways?" "OK Cancel" So I dont have to have two windows open to make sure I'm not duplicating songs in my playlist. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PuffyToesToo Posted June 21, 2019 Author Share Posted June 21, 2019 This is the same idea I was hoping to address here https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/66165-playlist-duplicates/ , but to also include episodes / movies. I'd be very happy to see this implemented! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuffyToesToo Posted June 23, 2019 Author Share Posted June 23, 2019 Could we merge these two topics so that the "upvotes" can be added together? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWORMUTH Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 (edited) Exactly the question I had. It's hard to build music playlists over time because who knows if you previously added a particular song to a music playlist when you have thousands and thousands of songs. Just a pop up that says "it's already in there, would you like to add the duplicate entry (yes/no)" would be great.
