Then I don't know what to say because this has been a problem for me for years and got worse with the last update. What could possibly be the reason if it's not true for everyone? Because this is what happens with me:

Are the files tagged properly with pre-composed utf-8 characters and not decomposed utf-8 filesystem type characters?

Uhm honestly, I have no idea. I'm on a Mac, I hold down a letter and choose an option from the drop down menu. So the letter exists in MC. And again, Ančel worked fine until a week or two ago.  ?

The change to the stable release was about a week ago. The previous stable release stored filenames in de-composed utf-8. The current stable release stores them in pre-composed utf-8.
If you create a group with the letter from a drop down menu, that will be pre-composed.
If the files artist/album tags are de-composed they will not match.

Upon running the first time with the current stable build (30.0.93), if your database had de-composed utf-8 in it, they should have gotten converted then.

Would you mind emailing me a copy of your database? (make a backup and email me the zipfile)
You could send it to

Dear Bob,

could the czech ř be added to the special character drop down menu of MC?
And for some versions now _ is removed from an album of files name if I use clean file properties.
Brahms_Sinfonie1_Abendroth_RSOLeipzig_Prag1952
changes to
Brahms Sinfonie1 Abendroth RSOLeipzig Prag1952

Hi Frank,

The czech ř works for me if I hold down the r key.
Is there some other method I'm missing?
