#6497: MediaConverter does not handle errors gracefully when sniffing files (easy) ------------------------------------------+------------------------------ Reporter: yourpalal | Owner: stippi Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Applications/MediaConverter | Version: R1/Development Resolution: fixed | Keywords: Blocked By: | Has a Patch: 1 Platform: All | Blocking: ------------------------------------------+------------------------------ Comment (by stippi): Hm, how about this suggestion: You could fill the list in a background (or the BApplication) thread. Check each file as before (by trying to load it as BMediaFile). That gives visual feedback to the user and makes sure that all files that can be loaded really are. Perhaps skip the BMediaFile construction for audio/* and video/* types to speed things up? -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/6497#comment:14> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
