On-going problem with "special characters"

(1/5) > >>

DmitryB:
Hello all!

I've been writing this for each version for a few years now, but the problem persists and I can't figure out why.

When a Group name had some special characters (č for example), the Group does not display the music inside it. Only when the special character is removed - contents inside the Group appear. I'm attaching screen grabs below of the name Ančerl vs. Ancerl.

In a previous discussion a couple of years ago Bob said it may have something to do with de-composed utf-8 vs. pre-composed utf-8 files. I honestly don't know how this can be fixed - I did not change my anything on my system except update my OS whenever a new version comes out.

I am currently on Mac OS Ventura 13.6 and my MC version is 32.0.20.

I'm attaching below 2 screen grabs showing what happens when a č is included vs. a regular c. And another screen grab of a possible explanation Bob offered in May of last year.


Thanks!

BUMP

We've talked about this before, yes - you sometimes do not see the replies.

On this thread, it seems to me that Bob tested renaming a *View* node using your database, but you are complaining about Playlist Groups. Maybe bob can take another look.

DmitryB:
Yes, it did work for Bob. He talked about a possible issue being pre-composed vs. de-composed utf-8 - and that it should have converted when I first ran a new version of MC - but that was now literally years ago. And nothing seems to be converting...  ?  :'(
