UTF-8 Locale / Unicode Problems
Posted: Fri Jun 24, 2011 9:40 pm
Guayadeque can read unicode tags, but is unable to import songs that contain unicode characters at any directory level or in the filename. This is a problem for me, because I often download music by foreign artists, and typically the filenames are the same as the song titles. Some songs will import fine, but others that contain non-ascii characters (e.g. Ö), will not import until manually changed to ascii equivalents (such as o).
I manage my music collection with directories, and usually have a faithful representation of the artist's name and the title of albums. It can be very tedious to try to cope with this problem, so I'm suggesting that a fix is made soon. Hope this has been helpful.
