Escaping path name character "&" - dw4y_ - 01-05-2020

Hello !

Still an happy user of MoOde, thx for the recent updates Wink

I've struggled with the "&" character in file path when saving a song into favorites (or when saving a playlist).
When this character is in the path, the line saved in the .m3u file is cut at this very character, so it becomes an empty file in playlist, and of course, can't be played.

I've a lot of albums or songs with this particular character in it, I've searched for same problem in forum, but searching "&" is also a problem Undecided
And I can't obviously rename all files / dir.

Did somebody ever notice that ?

Thx.

Prolly a bug. Maybe someone can repro?

Yup, can confirm that a track with an ampersand in the file name is truncated at the ampersand when added to Favorites. On the hunt for the bug.

Regards,
Kent

I have not tested that with older versions of MoOde, but I'm surprised that nobody did see that before ?
Well, it's spotted now Wink
