      Hello,

      I tried to parse an album and got a visual notification about one of the files.
      I went to the Error tab of the File Info dialog, as suggested,
      saw the following message:

      read b'\x01\x00\x00\x00', expected b'OggS', at 0x0

      It wasn't obvious to me at once that this was actually because of a corrupted file,
      so I reported the issue with a trace on IRC,
      where we eventually found out the origin of the issue,
      but then I was suggested to open this ticket for asking if we should improve this error handling and message reporting.

      I attached the trace in case it could be useful.
      Cheers!
