            Bug ID: 338689
           Summary: at startup loading of playlist takes very long
           Product: amarok
           Version: 2.8.0
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Playlist
          Assignee: amarok-bugs-dist@kde.org
          Reporter: frautukka@gmx.de
                CC: teo@kde.org

I often have my whole collection (>30000 songs on external USB3-drive) in the
playlist. When Amarok starts all entries in the playlist are gray and are not
accessable nor is Amarok responding quickly. Only after several minutes on my
new laptop they become black and eventually playback becomes possible. The same
bahaviour when I open Amarok with an empty playlist and add the collection from
"Media Sources"-"Local Collection". I don't see why this has to take so long...
all Amarok has to do at this moment is to fill the playlist entries. Maybe
Amarok tries to access the collection at this point already. Is that really
necessary? Later the playlist can be filled (and played) in less than a few
seconds.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to "Media Sources"-"Local Collection".
2. right-click on "Local Collection"
3. select "Add to Playlist"
4. After playlist is filled, exit Amarok
5. restart Amarok
Actual Results:  
the playlist load takes several minutes at startup

Expected Results:  
keep the playlist as it was. Or if reloading is necessary, do it in a few
seconds max.
