OneDrive Files On Demand causing crash? #238

Description

Actual Behaviour:

Bread Player seems to freeze / crash when I play music in folders that are serviced by One Drive Files On Demand - i.e. files are visible to the filesystem, but are not physically on the device.

What Happened?

Bread Player finds and indexes my music library, which is 97% in the cloud only. As soon as I try to play any cloud - only file, Bread Player throws an error "File is corrupt" and kind of freezes.

How it happened?

I was trying to play some of my music in the cloud.

Expected Behaviour:

I expected/hoped BP would stream my music from OneDrive, just like groove.

Steps to reproduce the bug:

  1. Point Windows music library to a cloud-only OneDrive location.
  2. Start BP, which scans the music and displays it.
  3. Any playback attempt fails.
  4. Added my OneDrive account, browsed to OneDrive. Playback of that fails in the same way.
    My Lumia 950xl shows similar behavior.

General Information:

  1. Bread Player Version: 2.7.9.0
  2. Device Improve shuffling #1 Type: Surface Book 2, W10 Build 17133.1
  3. Device Clean up code. #2 Type: Lumia 950xl, W10 Build 15254.313

Additional Comments:

I hope I'm not just mis-understanding how BP works - I assumed it would be able to stream from OneDrive, just like Groove.
