This was requested some time ago (2012) in the wishes forum.
Please provide a way to filter corrupted files (the ones marked with !) so that we can see how many we have, and set to work on correcting them.
It would also be much more useful to provide a bit more feedback on exactly what is allegedly wrong with each file.
For example, I've had a look & listen to one such file in the editor window and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it.

No, that justs shows missing files.
I'm asking about corrupted files. Ones that VDJ flags as having something wrong with them.
As I said, they're marked with a ! but that's all the info they have. There's no indication of exactly what's supposedly wrong with them.
There's no way of knowing how many files there are either, because they can't be filtered out.

And additionaly, if you listen to such a file and figure it isn't corrupted in any way, a possibility to unmark would be nice.
I have a couple of those files that work just fine.

What do said files even look like???

They have a ! next to their length, so for example a file that's 3:48 would show as 3:48! in the browser.
Note: I just did a search for glitched as I make a note if I hear one myself.........and only one out of three results has a ! so even that doesn't work as it ought to.

I thought the ! just meant a cold ending.

This is really where the ability to color code things would come in useful. Instead of a tiny insignificant ! that people don't notice, corrupted files could be changed to red for example.
If it was possible to set up colors for certain things (corrupted files, files below a certain bit rate, mono files and so) it'd be a lot more useful than just being able to manually assign a color to a track in the tag editor.

! can also indicate an abrupt ending (like you would find from tracks on mixed albums)
Adding time to the searchable fields might allow ! to be searched for. Maybe a easy fix but very limited in scope.

Well I must be good cause I just went through about 10,000 track (audio & video) and not a single "!" to be found but yes there should be a filter to catch those files marked as unfit by VDJ.
I mean after all, if its bad enough to alert VDJ why shouldn't it alert us so we don't play it and screw up our show............

Sorry, you have files in the Browser of version 8 that show an ! next to the length of the track ?
Can you post a screenshot ?

There you go, this is a mixed album so the tracks end abruptly.

Some from me too:
I've probably got more, but as there's no simple way of finding them, it's not easy to show them or fix them.
[later] I just tracked one down in the database.xml and they're marked as Corrupted="1" so it should be easy to make a filter, yes?
According to notepad++ I have 646 of them (gulp).
