I don't know if this is Linux-specific, but even when running clean() in mode 3, the filename outputs of my files stop whenever there is a dot character followed by a space. Perhaps dots should be replaced by underscores on Linux?

Code: [Select]

clean([Artist] - [Name], 3)

Code: [Select]

[Matt]

Where are you entering this?

I'm trying in the Rename, Move & Copy Files dialog on Windows and clean([Artist] - [Name], 3) works fine.

I named my trusty Abba this:
a . b . c . Dancing Queen

And the name comes out as:
Abba - a. b. c. Dancing Queen

Are you maybe entering somewhere else?  Or are we looking at a Linux specific thing?

Thanks.

[BryanC]

I'm entering it into the filename field of handheld sync. I'm syncing to a FAT32 drive, not sure if that would be an issue.

[Matt]

I'm entering it into the filename field of handheld sync. I'm syncing to a FAT32 drive, not sure if that would be an issue.

I just entered the same expression for the "Audio Filename Rule" of a handheld, did the transfer, and got:
Abba - a . b . c .ape

So that seemed to work on Windows.

Maybe we'll try Linux tomorrow at the office.

[BryanC]

Additionally, using clean() in the filename options is not allowing the following tracks to be written to a FAT32 Sansa Clip Sport Plus.

[Matt]

We just tried doing the same test using a FAT32 mount on Linux and it still worked fine.  The extra dots showed up at the end of the filename before the extension.

I'm not sure if there's something else we should be testing?

Thanks.

Here is the mounted filesystem with it's mounted parameters:

Code: [Select]

/dev/sde1 on /mnt/fat32 type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=ascii,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro,user=bob)
And the file we copied:

Code: [Select]

$ ls -l /mnt/fat32/Al\ Stewart/The\ Best\ Of\ Al\ Stewart\ -\ Songs\ From\ the\ Radio/
total 4920
-rwxr-xr-x 1 bob bob 5035965 Jul  9 10:03 Al Stewart - Delia's Gone - a.b.c...mp3

And the handheld filename rule:

Code: [Select]

Clean([Artist] - [Name], 3)

[BryanC]

It's also happening when I sync to my ext4 partition so let's forget about it being filesystem specific.

When I don't use a filename rule the file is synced correctly, which means that MC is capable of outputting dots correctly.

It's only when I use the filename rule that the filenames are truncated on dots. It doesn't matter if I use clean() or not, same issue.

I've tried inserting dots into both [Artist] and [Name] and they both truncate, so it's not field specific.

It looks like the temp file is created with the correct filename in the logs, but it's not logging the output filename so I can't tell if that's the problem area:

I've been trying it with conversion/dsp on/off and it has no effect. Even when the original file is synced the filename is truncated.

I've been trying it with conversion/dsp on/off and it has no effect. Even when the original file is synced the filename is truncated.

I tried it with a different filename closer to yours and reproduced it.
Not sure what's going on yet.

[Matt]

This was a bugger, but next build should fix it.

We were stripping everything but the extension off the filename, but I don't think the extension was on the filename at that point so it just stripped anything else.

Thanks for the help.

[BryanC]

Good news, thanks!
