gstreamer-0.10.2-1 rhythmbox-0.9.2.cvs20060123-1 1. Load up loads of MP3s in the library (I did that in RB s/ gst 0.8) 2. Exit RB 3. remove the MP3 plugin 4. Start up RB 5. Try to play songs 6. RB will mark all the entries as not playable in turns 7. Press the play/pause button 8. RB will be changing the window title between "Song name" and "Song name (paused)" all the time

Created attachment 58458 [details] [review] patch I don't entirely understand why this fixes it. It also fixes the first click of the 'play' button causing it to pause rather than play.
Looks good to me. A side though: if you have only non-playable tracks, and are using one of the endless play orders (linear-loop, random-*) will it spin switching tracks?
I've committed the patch to cvs.
Retitling to reflect remaining issue.

Perhaps a solution would be to stop if we try to start too many tracks in too short a time, say 5 in 10 seconds or something.

Or remember the first non-playable track seen in a playlist and if we end up back at the same song again without sucessfully playing any other songs then stop.
