Encoding issue again, as mentioned before (but in a different context - above was about how text is represented in a file, this is how a file name is represented on a file system) Blue%2520%25C3%2596yster%2520Cult means c396 (hexadecimal) is Ö (in 'UTF-8' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8), generally used by modern file systems) Blue%2520%25D6yster%2520Cult means d6 (hexadecimal) is Ö (in 'Windows-1252' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows-1252), used by legacy components of Microsoft Windows) If you think that's confusing, you'll enjoy 'this page' (http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/00d6/index.htm).
