Some episodes appear twice in feed #3275
Comments
I had the same problem (several times). It helped me to remove the podcast and subscribe again. |
@janitz Did the suggestion (delete and re-add the podcast) solve your issue? |
Yes it removed the doubled episodes. But it also removes the played status of all episodes of the feed. |
Annoying but logical. If you've replaced both feeds, you can probably close this issue. If you still have one feed with duplication you might keep it open in case there's someone able to find the root cause. |
This usually happens if the creator changes the id of an episode. I can look at a database export if you want help find the cause. If you do not want to share it publicly, you can also send me an email to |
I sent you an email with my database export. |
I have looked at the database. Looks like AntennaPod added 424,113,424,113 directly after each other. My guess that the publisher changed the ID was wrong. The items are exactly the same in the database. It definitely is a bug but I currently have no idea what could cause it. AntennaPod already looks at the database and verifies that the ID is new. Theoretically, this should not happen. |
Since you have no other leads I just wanted to chime in and say I had a similar issue that was caused by the publisher removing and re-uploading the episode. |
I've been having this issue for a few weeks as well. Antennapod has also been ignoring when I delete a downloaded episode and I'm forced to resume it after my current podcast is finished. |
I have this issue with several iTunes podcasts, and the episodes are not being removed and republished. If I manually modify the status or cancel the download one of the duplicate episode entries, it affects both entries at once. But if I listen to one, it does not automatically change the "listened" state on both. After removing the podcast and re-adding it, every episode appears only once as expected. Any new episodes published after that appear twice. 1.7.2b commit b892713, via FDroid, Nokia 6.1, Android 9 |
I'm running into an issue with duplicate episodes, as well. Removing and re-adding the feeds has not fixed it. Also on version 1.7.2b commit b892713 |
@phene Could you please post the feed url that has duplicates even if you removed and re-added? You can find the url behind the info icon on the feed details screen. |
I have a similar problem with this feed: http://einschlafen-podcast.de/feed/mp3/ |
Just to gather some more data: do you use gpodder sync? |
@ByteHamster If you mean Integration->gpodder.net, no. |
I experimented same problem on some feeds, and have no gpodder or other sync account. |
Hey all. First, Thank you. |
Just one more try here. I have deleted the android app and all data (as far as I can tell) and reinstalled keeping all settings factory-stock. version 1.7.3b Commit f9e7e9a . |
Still affects 1.7.3c commit dc07308 from F-Droid, with no change in behavior from my previous comment |
Here 2, 31.12.2019 |
i am getting startalk 4 times removed everything and now i get 3 times |
could people who are receiving dups ping at least one feed url? I think the app used the guid for duplication detection, maybe it needs to hash the subscription url+title as well? |
Publishers regularly mess up the guids. I think when searching for existing items, we should first look for an item with the same guid. If we do not find one, look for an item with the same download url AND same title. If we still do not find an item, it is probably new. We should keep in mind that there are feeds without media. Theoretically, there might even be feeds which use the same media file for different items. |
I just got this bug to go away when I changed the Update Interval to once a day instead of every 4 hours. |
I have a fix here #4839 which should be able to handle GUID de-duplication pretty well. I don't think we should be too much more ambitious to deduplicate feeds and just honor |
@keunes can you assign to me? |
If anyone is still seeing duplicate feed items, please ping the name of the podcast or a RSS URL |
https://www.primaverasound.com/radio/shows/deforme-semanal-ideal-total?action=rss I'm getting each episode twice (I'm also synced with gpodder) |
@javissimo What was the title of the episode or are you saying you are getting every episode twice? This sounds like an issue with gpodder syncing. But I think my PR here could address that duplication as well, but unfortunately it might hide the real cause of the problem. #4839 |
I wasn't aware that the URL change issue also happens without gpodder. |
Episodes appearing twice is not related to gpodder. Gpodder only adds/removes subscriptions. In all cases of duplicate episodes that I have experienced myself, the podcast hosts messed up the IDs in their feed. I have received one database export where I'm not sure because the ID was the same. Maybe in that case, the host actually added the same episode with the same ID to the feed twice. If they mess up the IDs, we could do some amount of guessing if they still mean an old episode. This has to be done very carefully though, to not violate the standard ourselves just because we try to work around publishers violating it. |
Here's one more pod with this issue, on some episodes: I reported it to the publisher, but they belive they are managing guid correctly. |
