Bugzilla – Bug 3196
Unable to name playlists in Unicode
Last modified: 2008-09-15 14:39:24 UTC
SlimServer Version: 6.5b1 - 6676 - Windows XP - EN - cp1251. Nightly build 2006-03-23. Searched existing bugs and did not find any on this issue. I think I saw a posting in the Beta forum reporting a similar issue but I can't seem to find it now. The issue is: In Web UI, saving a new playlist and naming it in Unicode characters (cyrillic in my case) results in the playlist named 'Untitled'. Or, renaming an existing playlist named in Latin characters into Unicode characters results in the old (Latin) name retained.
There was a similar bug 2532, marked now as fixed that affected unicode in form inputs. check log with d_playlist, and d_command enabled.
1. Enable d_playlist in Debugging. Log entry: currentPlaylistChangeTime : Fri Mar 24 12:17:58 2006 currentPlaylistRender : Fri Mar 24 12:18:05 2006 currentPlaylistRenderSkin : currentPlaylistRenderStart: 0 skinOverride: start: 0 Skipping playlist build - not modified. 2. Save a new playlist named in Latin characters. The playlist shows in Browse Playlists named correctly. The .m3u file is created in the playlist directory. Log entry: Playlist: modifyPlaylistCallback() savecurrsong is 0 Not writing out untitled playlist. 3. Save a new playlist named in cyrillic characters. The playlist shows in Browse Playlists named Untitled. No file is created in the playlist directory. Log entry: Playlist: modifyPlaylistCallback() savecurrsong is 0 Not writing out untitled playlist. 4. Enable d_playlist in Debugging. Attempt to save a new playlist. As soon as "The current playlist: Save" is clicked (before naming the playlist), SlimServer crashes. I repeated this step several times - the crash is consistent.
Typo in my last entry, should read "4. Enable d_command in Debugging."

Tested in Windows (cp1252, but named using Cryllic chars) with the latest 6.5 builds. Works for me here.
