Description Emilio Scalise 2007-09-06 12:45:09 UTC

Version:           1.4.7 (using KDE 3.5.7, Debian Package 4:3.5.7.dfsg.1-1 (4.0))
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.22-6-pm

I have a directory in my collection that is on an usb hard drive.
The problem happens doing this:
- add some songs present in the external hard drive to the playlist
- close amarok
- unmount the external hard drive
- restart amarok with the external drive unmounted, the songs are correctly grayed out
- close amarok
- mount the external drive
- open amarok, the songs are grayed out until they are played.

Is there a way to force amarok to refresh the state of the songs present in the playlist?

Thanks

Hrm, but he shouldn't be seeing that behavior in 1.4.7, if he's *actually* running 1.4.7 -- at least not if it's the same issue.  If that's the case it might be a Dynamic Collection issue.

Comment 3 Kevin Funk 2007-09-06 17:31:49 UTC

I can reproduce it in 1.4.7. I'm doing exactly the same steps he described. I'm not using Dynamic Collections.

Comment 4 Jeff Mitchell 2007-09-06 18:42:38 UTC

So you have explicitly turned off Dynamic Collections in your amarokrc?  And then done a full rescan?

Comment 5 Kevin Funk 2007-09-06 20:24:57 UTC

Nope. Not disabled, sorry.

Comment 6 Emilio Scalise 2007-09-08 19:16:51 UTC

I'm running 1.4.7. The behaviour is similar to the one of bug 143513.

I should try if disabling dynamic playlist changes something..

Comment 7 Emilio Scalise 2007-09-08 19:47:04 UTC

I've done some tests on another machine with a similar software configuration... the problem doesn't occur. So this report is invalid, sorry.

Comment 8 Kevin Funk 2007-09-08 20:00:50 UTC

Jeff, you were right. It works as intended, just tested again.

Comment 9 Emilio Scalise 2007-09-11 07:48:44 UTC

I've found when this occurs..
If I start amarok with usb disk unmounted, songs are grayed. If I mount the disk without restarting amarok songs are grayed. It's normal?

You don't reopen bugs which are marked as a duplicate of another bug, for all you know the other one is still open.
