Don't Delete Items In Playlist If Disk/File Not Present

Postby thz » Wed Oct 22, 2014 10:20 pm

My subsonic setup utilizes a network drive for media storage. On rare ocassions the computer running subsonic has not been able to access that disk. When this happens, subsonic sets its' library to having zero items. This is fine, as a simple reconnect and rescan brings it all back -- I find this behaviour makes sense. But, one bummer artifact of that happening is that subsonic zeros out all playlists.... Ouch. Some playlists are no big deal, but others are somewhat longterm projects. Well I should say they were, as now I no longer use playlists in subsonic.
Question, would it be possible to not clear a playlist in the above mentioned circumstance?

This appears to no longer be an issue as of 5.0. I was having the same problem, and now I know longer do.

The only way to wipe the playlists when the file/folders are 'empty' (or have been significantly changed) is to click the "Clean Up Database" option.
