Remove duplicates from playlist

[red-tin-dave]

Feature Description

A menu option via right click on a playlist to remove duplicate tracks

Which one should be kept?
The first? The Last?

FYI as a manual workaround you can sort by # then by Artist or maybe Duration, then remove as desired.

I have been using the workaround but a remove duplicate option would save time and effort particularly in large playlists.
I think remove the most recently added, but I'm open to persuasion either way

Maybe a warning in case of a duplicated track is more sitable than an automatic removal?
And should it only work for 100% identical tracks, or also for different versions/remixes of the track?

[ronso0]

You mean a warning when adding a duplicate?
I don't think that is helpful. I have playlists where I play a sample/jingle multiple times.

Duplicate detection works by track id, no magic involved. Same for the shuffle methods.
