I have installed MusicIP MIxer 1.7 and Slimserver 6.5 on my Windows XP
platform.
I got some errors importing tracks having accented characters in the
filename or in the path.
First I left the music folder field blank in the server settings.
Slimserver would not import albums having accented characters in the
path. For songs having accented characters in the filename, they would
import OK, tags were OK, but when viewing song info in the server, the
track filename would get garbled characters. After viewing the info,
slimserver would remove the file from the DB as it was not able to find
the file.
When setting the music folder field in slimserver, files would get
duplicated.
I found a fix that fixes those problems. I modified the following line
in MusicMagic Importer.pm:
for my $key (qw(album artist genre name)) {
to:
for my $key (qw(album artist genre name file)) {
Now, everything imports OK, display OK, and plays OK.
I found another problem:
If I browse a song with accented characters in filename and hold the
play button (to launch a MusicMagic Mix), the song title appearing in
the mix gets garbled. Also, a duplicate song is created in the
database. When browsing with the server, I have one entry displaying
the correct title pointing to the correct filename, and one entry with
a garbled title pointing to a garbled filename. Here is an example.
