Description James Richardson 2008-04-17 08:34:38 UTC

Inputing "Björk" in any search box on SN (Live365 - Rhapsody - MP3tunes) will return (BjÃ¶rk) and or an error message.

bug 7677 very similar

Comment 2 Michael Herger 2008-04-21 01:36:57 UTC

change 3226 - utf8 decode parameters passed as part of the url, or they would be double-encoded in the next call, preventing correct display and linking of items with extended characters (eg. Björk).

Please note that I still get random empty results or JSON errors. Pretty often trying the exactly same URL again does work. Maybe just timeout issues accessing remote service providers from my local installation. We'll have to test on our racks.
