DSub 4.9 has introduced a bug in searching by genre.

If the genre has square brackets eg "Classical [flac]" DSub throws an error which was not the case in 4.8.6 (I have gone back to 4.8.6 to check and it works perfectly). Genre search without square brackets works ok. The message is ...

Illegal character in query at index 136: h~~p://192.16.8.1.72:4041/rest/getAlbumList.view?u=a###&p=enc:61############&v=1.2.0&c=DSub&size=20&offset=0&type=byGenre&genre=Classical [flac]

(~~ characters to stop it creating a link, ## for security)

Using Subsonic 5.1 (in both cases 4.8.6 and 4.9)

Any ideas??


EDIT: Just tested - not just [] in genre causes problems. Also fails with () and with ##.

Any news on this, or do I go back to 4.8.6

This seems to have been fixed in 4.9.3 (though no mention of it in the change log)
Thank you
