Troubleshooting Import Issues¶
Missing Audio Previews: Some tracks may not have preview URLs available. In this case: - Try importing from a different source (Spotify vs. Deezer) - Look for an alternative version of the song - Some songs may not have preview URLs available from any source
Duplicate Songs: The system will automatically detect duplicates based on: - Spotify/Deezer IDs - ISRC codes when available
Limited Imports: For performance reasons, when creating rounds from playlists: - Only a limited number of songs (typically 8-10) will be included in a round - All songs are saved to your library for future use
