When a non-playable media is loaded in Kaffeine, it searches for valid
codecs in the system. Normally, the correct codecs are found, displaying
"Codec package is already installed". The media is not played, but the
user is not informed of such situation.

Bug: Usability bug

Step:
Locate a non-playable media (VCD, SVCD or DVD with errors/ invalid compression/ invalid data can be used).
Press Play Button (or by default, it is automatically played)

Result:
Kaffeine start loading codecs, search for codecs, ending with a popup displaying "Codec package is already installed". 
Nothing else. The media is not played. 

Expected Result:
As the media is wrong, Kaffeine should inform about such situation (maybe after searching for codecs), but at the end, the user should know that the media is wrong.

** Affects: kaffeine (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
