[SOLVED] Filenames with quotation marks cause MPD to fail

[TheOldPresbyope]

Code:

Oct 19 10:17 : client: process command "add "USB/Intenso/K/Kiss the Anus of a Black Cat/An Interlude To The Outermost/01 - Prelude ("The World Is In Fear Again And It Has All Been Manufactured").mp3""
Oct 19 10:17 : exception: Space expected after closing '"'
Oct 19 10:17 : client: command returned 3

There's that exception code again. 

The evidence suggests that when the process to select all the tracks of a specific genre hits this exception, it simply stops. The resulting playlist contains however many tracks it has already accumulated. 

That would explain why the odd statistics, why you see the same behavior after all the changes you made, and also why I didn't see anything wrong with the files I looked at---they didn't happen to include one of the "exceptional" files.

How about you zip up the "Kiss..." track (I had to look up this band!) and send me the URL as before.
