0.10.16

I can't manage to get every song in my liked songs downloaded before a rate limits or other bug stops the flow. When I start it again, I end up with the same songs being downloaded multiple times. I tried manually specifying the song_archive location and it made no different.

This is the error I get. You can see it reads out 'SKIPPING:' but then somehow downloads or duplicates the track anyway.

This is very strange. Clearly it is detecting that they should be skipped, but it's not skipping them. Please try updating to v0.10.22 (which will also update librespot-python), run with --debug enabled, and attach the created logfile. This might give a clue as to what is happening on your machine.

I will try to reproduce this but skipping works perfectly for me. Maybe also try with OPTIMIZED_DOWNLOADING off? This shouldn't be the problem but it would be very interesting if it had an effect.
