Mixxx 1.8 Beta1 does not load tracks from iTunes feature on Windows

[RAFFI TEA]

Running Mixxx 1.8 Beta 1 on Windows XP it is not possible to load a track from the iTunes feature, i.e., the imported tracks in the list view of imported songs.

This is a result of incorrect file URI's.
* If you click on the sidebar item iTunes feature the file location of all tracks starts with "file://localhost/C:/...."
* If you click on a specific imported iTunes playlist in the sidebar, the locations start with "/C:/....

Here is patch solving one of the two URI problems: All the tracks in a iTunes playlist can now be loaded to deck A or B.

Unfortunately, it was not possible for me to solve the other problem.

Thanks for that, Tobias. Could you possibly attach a diff (using 'bzr diff') instead of the whole file? That would make it tons easier to merge.

[RAFFI TEA (raffitea)]

Attached you find the corresponding diff!

Patch is in r2317. Thanks for the fix Tobias!

Please note that my fix solves only one of the two URL problems.

--> Partially fixed would be a better status, if possible

[Albert Santoni (gamegod)]

Oops, my mistake. We still need to fix the second bug:
* If you click on a specific imported iTunes playlist in the sidebar, the locations start with "/C:/....

Thanks,
Albert

Dear all,

attached you find the patch 'itunestrackmodel.diff' which fixes the other URL problem.

From now on, the iTunes feature is supposed to work well under Windows. However, it would be nice if someone could confirm that it still works under Mac, too.
