National characters in directories and filenames

The directories (album or artist names) with national characters are not listed in subsonic and mp3 filenames are not listed in the tag editor. Why that?

I have the same problem - is there allready a solution or a tip how to solve it? Maybe another encoding type or something like this...

Found the solution, it's a encoding problem

you must edit the web.xml and change the UTF-8 encoding param to ISO-8859-1.

All my songs are now found and subsonic diplay the french characters.

Now subsonic is fully functional in my environment (Sun Server E3500 with Solaris Express on 8 CPU's).

Thanks to the subsonic Team. :D

Which of the xml tags in the web.conf did you change? "fileEncoding" ?

Thank you!
