My streams section stream thumbnails duplication issue

[ptkovsky]

Hello. I noticed a strange issue that came up for me recently. I've been getting this few times so far. So when I open my streams section sometimes it happens that some stream thumbnails or links to them or whatever this is called duplicate themselves. For example, now I got this going for Zeus stream link http://imgur.com/77JRHNI. I'm not sure how to reproduce it, but I thought that it would be worth making this report here anyway. Got this yesterday with different stream. Tried searching for something similar here. Any ideas?

This can happen when the viewer count of a stream gets updated between multiple API requests and a stream has fallen behind another one in the ranking. That's a common issue with infinite scroll implementations. New items could be checked for being a duplicate of an already existing item, but I think it's not too dramatic.

The viewer counts are updated by Twitch every minute or so. When you're scrolling through a menu and you're making several requests in a short period of time, it's very unlikely that this kind of error is happening. If you're waiting for a longer time though before scrolling again, other streams might overtake already loaded ones, so they are pushing the loaded ones down in the ranking, making them re-appear on the next request. This is how it works...
