Again, I understand how to bulk change files and folder names... that is not the issue I'm would like to have resolved. By default... questions marks, colons and slashes are not used in the naming of the filesystem structures of the OSes I use. Foreign language "characters" and "accents" is what I'm talking about... and these are "all" supported in all the filesystems that I use. There are words that are completely meaningless or mean something else when the precise accent is not used. I use the "correct" unicode tags to create the corresponding correctly named folders and filenames structures automatically. No issues with question marks, colons or slashes as these are removed during the tagging process. What you suggest requires that I also change the tags in my main FLAC libarary and its subsets. As I said, I use the tags to "correctly" and "automatically" create my filesystem folders and filenames during the ripping and transcoding processes. All the players and tools I use handle the foreign characters correctly... only the process of creating mixes via MusicIP fails. I'm not about to try to change the tags for 900+ CDs in my main FLAC library with fingerprint running the risk of messing the tags during the bulk renaming process. The real issue, unless outside of the SBS domain, is that MusicIP mixes are not being generated correctly by the SBS while using the MusicIP pluging and CLI to generate them. I'm not asking the development team to recreate the wheel here... All I'm asking is that if there a way to fix this bug within the SBS domain... that it be take into consideration. Btw, I have not filed a bug because, as I said, I don't know where the failure occurs. -- tamanaco ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tamanaco's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4620 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86355 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
