Bugzilla – Bug 9891
Playlist names
Last modified: 2009-01-26 09:18:10 UTC
If I have playlist names that contain an underscore such as "My_First_Playlist.m3u"; when the playlist data comes back on a playlist request (e.g playlists 0 50) the underscores have been removed and have been replaced with blanks. I do not believe this should be happening
Bug 7610 may be related QA confirmed with 7.2.1 - release and 7.3.0-23729 The play lists look OK until a rescan takes place. Either playlist only or full
Confused me James. Is this an acknowledgement of the bug in 7.2.1 ? Yes it was after a rescan as I thought a rescan was necessary to restore state after I changed the contents of the playlist folder. Looks like your message got cut off.
Where is the ball? My court? Your Court? If you see the bug, in what version will it be fixed?
Is the filename in the query's answer, but without the underscore? Or is it only the playlist name (which is derived from the file name)?
The playlist name. The command "playlists start itemsperresponse LF" only returns the names of the playlists. I have my playlistss named with underscores for clarity. The underscores come back as spaces.
We replace the underscores to create "nicely" looking names, because it is very common practice by tagging applications to replace spaces with underscores. If you want to derive the playlist's file name, you might want to add tags:u to the query to get the url.
