I've raised these before on the chat, and understand that it's intended behavior. I just wanted to try one more time argue my case because it is a recurring source of annoyance for me, but if you mark it as wontfix I promise to not bug you again.
Behavior: Some audio files with sketchy headers will abort the scan of a directory and the whole directory will not be available in gonic. All this happens silently in the background.
Why this is a problem for me specifically
I have some music ripped from youtube with a tool that extracts the original stream without re-encoding
I'm talking about music originally released on youtube and not available from any other sources that i want to preserve for archival purposes (live recordings, meme music, etc...)
Some ogg files are missing the stream header. There is no way to reconstruct these header without (lossy) re-encoding according to my research
All these files play fine in all common music players. I can live with these files not showing up in gonic, but them breaking the whole folder is annoying.
Other reasons to argue my case
Somewhat surprising behavior and therefore hard to debug
Makes it hard to figure out which files actually cause the problem
Proposed solution:
Rather than discarding the whole album, just discard the track.

Gonic not scanning folder if encountering file with "sketchy" header
