Bug Description

I was in a particular directory in browse mode and I decided I didn't want that dir anymore, so I deleted it on the command line.

At that point, I was unable to use browse anymore because even trying to navigate '..' caused a dialog that informed me "permission denied." I literally had to restart Mixxx to be able to continue browsing.

This is trunk as of ~ a week ago.

I wonder if this is still a problem in Tobias' tree item browse branch...

It should work. I'll have to test it in detail to make sure everything works.

What I can say so far: The right track table view will only list the meta data of the audio files found in a particular directory. The folder structure can only be accessed through the sidebar. Collapsing and expanding a folder (=sidebar item) again (via double click) refreshes the subfolder list. That said, the branch is capable to cope with removable devices (tested on OS X so far).

This has been fixed in 1.10 because the Browse feature has been rewritten.
