Summary	0000176: 'Add files' scans for D: and E: even if they're explicity _not_ selected
Description	If the user clears the db, and then does a complete scan of C: (deselecting cd D: and E:), the scan proceeds successfully, except that: 1) if cds are present, the app scans the cds even though they were explicitly excluded from the scan 2) if cds aren't present, the app scans something (I don't know what) and returns: 'Problem scanning directory ?:\track10.cda' If I press cancel, it then does the same for tracks 1-15 on drive D: Note: This is probably caused by a winamp temporary playlist that was created when I played a CD. A simple solution would be to not try to import files from fixed drives for playlists since this is extremely unreliable since one can not depend on the 'correct' disk being in the fixed drive.

Fixed in build

rusty 2003-03-17 00:56 administrator ~0000507	Good idea. The only exception to this would be if the user has 2 hard drives (e.g. C: and D:) and playlists are all on C:, but some of the music referred from the playlists is on D:).

jiri 2003-03-17 17:04 administrator ~0000522	Maybe it will be better to check if the referenced file exists and ignore it only if it doesn't exist, regardless its drive&path.

rusty 2003-03-18 16:35 administrator ~0000551	How about, check if the referenced file exists only if the path to the file is in the 'path list' of auto-scanned directories? Note: I think that this is better, but I'm ok with either solution.
