Doug,

Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't think that's the issue.  On the
NON-affected computer, there are plenty of apostrophes in the
folder/file names, and those don't seem to cause the problem.  Both of
the machines are running the same versions of both OS X and SlimServer,
so if it were a filename-related issue (i.e. something related to the
file system, totally independent of iTunes and QT), then both machines
would suffer from it.  However, only one machine is affected, and
therefore I suspect that it's an incompatibility between SS and iTunes
v4.x rather than a file-system-related issue.

I understand tags *should* be treated OK, but it's quite possible (I
have no idea) that there's some difference between how iTunes v4.x and
v6.x treat tags and/or the .xml library file, and that SlimServer is
having problems when parsing those tags and/or the .xml file from
v4.x.

That's really the only possibility that I can think of that makes
sense, and if that IS the case then hopefully SS can be fixed to become
compatible with both software versions.

Has anyone else seen this issue who uses iTunes v4.x (or any other
version of iTunes)?
