generate own recommendations problem / duplicate editions
Deleted user

Hey, is anyone else having trouble with the new "Generate New recommendations" feature? When I click it I get 2 copies of 25 items, rather than 50 items, and no matter which of the two I rate, add, etc. only one disappears and the other becomes unclickable. Also, it seems to be re-recommending things to me, repeatedly, and they don't seem to be a different edition, but the same exact item.
One last point is that I think it would be nice if there was some sort of filter built into the recommendations feature so that if you own an edition of something or have added an edition of something to your wanted list that it doesn't recommend any other editions of that item to you. I get that a hardcore collector might want all the editions and know of other editions out there, (limited, collector's, etc. editions.) so maybe it could be a preference in the profile?

That seems very strange, I have not seen that happen before, will have a look.
The edition thing depends on creating an editions database as discussed in the other thread, thats one good thing about the movies section, there are no duplicates.

Cool. I just checked it out and it seemed fine. I'll let you know if anything else happens. Thanks!

Sorry Tom. After doing a couple of round of Movie recommendations I've started getting the exact same movies but in a slightly different order. Is this because I'm going through them too fast? Most of them were marked Not Interested, but a few were marked Want to Watch, if that helps. Cheers.
