Description cerebro84 2004-02-12 22:47:46 UTC
Version:           0.8.4 (using KDE 3.2.90 (CVS >= 20040117), compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.1 (Mandrake Linux 9.2 3.3.1-4mdk)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.6.2-rc3

I don't know if it's a bug or a wish, but I think that amarok should just skin every file in the playlist that it can't find, and not stop playback at all. Skipping an inexistent song is the behaviour of either winamp, xmms, itunes etc. I think that if it's not a bug, the should be at least an option to choose.

skin=skip

I completely agree and am frankly surprised that it doesn't skip the track. It must be a regression. Markey do you think this is an engine or playlist bug?

Confirmed.
