Description quill_williams 2009-10-26 20:40:41 UTC

Server shows random black diamond with white question mark symbols against artists and some tracks Nothing in documentation about this.

Teus suggests:
It's most probably a wrongly interpreted unicode character. I suppose it's a right quote, but it also could be character with a 'diacritic' like á, à, ü, etc. 

Andyg suggests:
Could be a scanner bug, adding an invalid UTF-8 character after some titles. Could you file a bug and attach one of the files? 

Music file attached.

Somehow the attached file got deleted.  Can you re-upload it?

Created attachment 6238 [details]
zip file containing a .wav file

This is an example of a file that displays the black diamond with white question mark in the Server web control.

Thanks, the WAV tags in this file have nulls at the end, should be easy to fix.
