I just noticed something odd. I had a symlink to one of my songs that shows up as funky characters. When accessed through the symlink, it doesn't have the funky characters. Obviously the tags are the same, since it's just a symlink. Must be something in the file name? I noticed the symlinked file shows up in the list as the name of the symlink (not the name of the artist or song from the tags).
Here is a small sampling of my paths: ===Funky characters displayed=== /home/root/Music/311/Uplifter/01 - Hey You.mp3 /home/root/Music/Halestorm/Halestorm/02 - I Get Off.mp3 ===Normal characters displayed=== /home/root/Music/Another Animal/Another Animal/03 - Broken Again.mp3 /home/root/Music/Halestorm/Halestorm/get_off.mp3 -> 02 - I Get Off.mp3 Hope this help. Thanks. -Steven On Thu, Jul 30, 2009 at 7:08 AM, Steven **<[email protected]> wrote: > On Wed, Jul 29, 2009 at 9:05 PM, c_c<[email protected]> wrote: >> Steven **-4 wrote: >>> >>>>These versions (0.61 and the latest binary) still show all the funky >>>>characters on some songs though. >>> >> Can you check the tags of these songs?
