GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 610424
Rhythmbox doesn't skip bad files
Last modified: 2010-02-20 01:56:55 UTC
When Rythmbox runs into a bda file, for example, if the file has been deleted, playback stops, which is very disruptive. The file should simply be skipped. To reproduce: Add music to your library, remove one of the files from the drive (leave it in your library). Play the song before it, and when rhythmbox comes to the no longer available song, it will stop all playback instead of skipping over it. I'm pretty sure this happens with any kind of file erors, not just missing files.
