Warn user that loading media failed when opening file #153

Closed azfoo closed 4 months ago

The current result is a silent fail. Notice that the media length is "loaded" nevertheless and that is by design, so the timelines can still be displayed even before loading a new media.

Not a silent fail since #132. Player is disabled since no media is loaded so crashes due to no media are prevented. Tooltip on disabled player requests user to load media.

Fix still required?

The user might not hover the button for long enough to actually see the tooltip. I think an error message at the time of loading in addition to the tooltip is better.

Also, the tooltip is only being displayed on the stop button:
