Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/spotipy-dev/spotipy/issues/773

issue
No matter what I try, I always get the same tracks in return

def listtracks(list):
    for idx, track in enumerate(list):
        print(idx, track)
playlist = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxx(playlist with more than 100 tracks)'
offset = 30
playlist_items = sp.playlist_items(playlist, limit=100, offset=offset)
listtracks(playlist_items['tracks']['items'])

Expected behavior
incresing the offset should give me a different set of tracks

Output
I always get the same output of tracks
Environment:

OS: Mac OS 12.0 Beta (ARM)
Python version [3.9]
spotipy version [2.19]
your IDE (if using any) [PyCharm]

Additional context
Problem does not exist with a direct api call using the Spotify developer console

The issue is that the identifier you're using for the playlist is malformed. Post the identifier.

The playlist identifier I am using is 1v1rhlhXhgSNkPux9G5qBV?si=066ae87471d945bd
Correct would be 1v1rhlhXhgSNkPux9G5qBV

Thank you so much this was driving me insane I was troubleshooting for hours now. That also explains some other problems I was facing but it was a bit strange that I was getting any results at all.
