UMS is very picky with filenames
Hello all,
I downloaded some videos and got errors like these:
These ugly characters above are a german 'ß' [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%9F]].
I don't know much about Java , so I don't know how easy ist would be to make the reading routine more robust, but it would be highly desirable .
I downloaded some videos and got errors like these:
Code: Select all
java.nio.file.InvalidPathException: Malformed input or input contains unmappable characters: /mnt/video/Filme/Allgemein/La Strada - Das Lied der Stra��e-0393509000.mp4
I don't know much about Java , so I don't know how easy ist would be to make the reading routine more robust, but it would be highly desirable .
Thanks and best regards

Re: UMS is very picky with filenames
It should accept that as a valid character unless there is a bug somewhere. I renamed one of my files to have that character in and it worked for me but I will be using a different version. Maybe the character encoding in your text viewer or system is not set to UTF-8.
Could you post trace logs? see the section in red above.

Logs are important for us to help, Please follow This Link before asking for support. Just a forum cleaner, Will help if I can but no expert.
Re: UMS is very picky with filenames
Unfortunately I don't have the old logs , but the line I showed above was in the log.
If I see the files on the linux prompt I have no Problems. Jellyfin handles them fine too, so I don't think it is a system problem.
I would not mind if such a file would be just ignored but unfortunately the whole folder in which the file is located is shown as empty for all clients. So the software seems to escalate this problem, which is not the best solution IMO.
Thanks for considering !
