filesystem::g_exists() crashes when a cdda:// location is input; is there a way to do this check other than catching the error when trying to play a nonexistent cdda://?

Two methods I can think of off the top of my head. I'm not really sure which one is better (it might depend on what you're doing exactly):

1) filesystem::g_is_remote_or_unrecognized() will return true for "cdda://" locations....but it will also return true for "http://" and others....

2) Is there anything wrong with using this?

CODE

(strcmp_partial(file_path, "cdda://")==0)
