I think it would be useful in general to be able to "clean" a playlist, not just
when the server comes across a missing file when playing (it could just be
temporarily unavailable, so it should not be set by default to do this!)

A feature added to the playlist edit function: "purge unreachable songs" or
somesuch would be highly useful I think!

PS, I'm currently running slimserver 5.4 on linux

here's some code that does the trick, but I don't know how to add it to the
slimserver....

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

open(F, "<$ARGV[0]") or die "problem opening file $ARGV[0]\n";

while ( $f = <F> ) {
  chomp $f;

  if ($f =~ /^\#CURTRACK/) {
    print "$f\n";
    $f = <F>;
    chomp $f;
  }

  if ($f =~ /^\#EXTM3U/) {
    print "$f\n";
    $f = <F>;
    chomp $f;
  }

  if ($f =~ /^\#EXTINF/) {
    $extinf = $f;
    $f = <F>;
    chomp $f;
    if (-f $f) {
       print "$extinf\n";
       print "$f\n";
    }
  } elsif (-f $f) {
    print "$f\n";
  } else {
    print STDERR "file doesn't exist: $f\n";
  }

}

close(F);

Routine bug db maintenance; removing old versions which cause confusion.  I apologize for the inconvenience.

Dean doesn't work here any more :)

Unassigned bugs cannot have a priority.
