[Bug 1514129] Re: Remove files that no longer exist automatically

 

Perhaps all files added to openlp should be cached in the data folder,
whilst maintaining a link to the original file.

That way if the file is deleted outside of OpenLP its not going to
disappear. But then we would need to handle the case of if the file
changes.

Ultimately my ideal solution would be to cache the file, and then
'watch' the file if it is in the service, or check that it hasn't
changed before preview or sending live?

Title:
  Remove files that no longer exist automatically

Status in OpenLP:
  New

Bug description:
  If user deletes or renames files, they should be automatically 
  deleted from library instead of staying there as ghost files.

  Would be nice if OpenLP did this on startup or even while it is
  running.

  If user has deleted or moved some files, it's unlikely that they wish to
  use them with OpenLP anymore. Or if they do, it's easier for them to 
  just re-place them instead of having to remove the old files first.
