Bug#47197: infinite loop if files in Playlist do not exist

Package: noatun
Version: 2.0.0 (using KDE 3.0.3 )
Severity: normal

Hi

Thank you for Noatun, I love it. It is amazing how it improved in a few months !

I have the following problem. In easy steps:

1) Put a CD with MP3s
2) Launch Playlist -> "Add directory" to select several files at once
3) Choose Random play
4) Play some files
5) Exit Noatun
6) Take the CD off (optionally put a new CD)
7) Start a new Noatun session

I get infinite popup error messages, it looks like one for each randomly selected song. It doesn't crash but it gets unusable because popups are launched one after the other.

I guess it would be desirable to just show the first error message, and let the user say "OK", and right aftwerwards cleanup the Playlist. Or something along these lines. 

My 2 cts, hope it helps  :-)

Cheers
-- Leo
