Description ulterno 2023-07-14 16:16:23 UTC

If Elisa loads a playlist with entries not having a filesystem presence...
For instance, 
1. User loads files on removable drive.
2. User reboots computer.
3. Elisa starts again with previous entries (because user has "Restore Session" enabled)
4. Elisa doesn't find entries in filesystem and marks them invalid/unavailable (because user has not set automount for removable devices)
5. User mounts the Removable Storage Device

OBSERVED RESULT
6. Elisa does not reload the files after the external drive is mounted
7. User has to go to the location (either using Elisa's inbuilt browser or some other filebrowser)

EXPECTED RESULT
6. Elisa does not reload the files after the external drive is mounted
7. User presses a button on Elisa and Elisa rechecks all Playlist entries for filesystem availability.

Thanks for the report. In 23.08 it has a nicer behavior.
