Title: Special Characters in Smartlist filters
Post by: lightningbit on August 03, 2022, 10:44:27 am
Hi,

in order to be able to synchronize files to for example airsonic, I need to make sure that the filenames do not contain any special characters (like éèçà'"#....etc)
(don't ask my why, there seems to be problems syncing the playlists from JRiver MC to linux, and then have the content read by Airsonic)

So I created customfields to compose the filename (Album_ASCII, Name_ASCII, Artist_ASCII)
like mentioned in this post : https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=99583.0

Now the question :
- I would like to create some Smartlists to check for other non-ascii charachters left in the "ascii version" of a field
it works fine for characters like ' ; : | & " # !  etc....
BUT, if I create a smartlist where I for example say [Name] contains é (see screenshot) then it lists all records (assuming all which have a regular e in the name)
and this problem occurs for all characters like éèàçëïöÖË ... and so on

Any idea or suggestion how I can build a smartlist which can capture those special letters?
