Song won't add to any playlist [Resolved]

Postby mikebel3 » Wed Jan 11, 2012 6:09 pm

Has anyone ever run into the problem of not being able to add a specific song to a playlists? For some reason, this one songs refuses to be added to anything. It is in m4a format, not unusually large. I have other songs on playlists of the same format and smaller/larger size.

Would also like to mention that the file plays/streams just fine. I also tried converting to an MP3. File streams fine but does not want to be added to a playlist.

Something odd in the filename or tags perhaps? - another thing to check is the embedded artwork if any.
As you have converted the file and it plays ok I think we can rule out anything else.

Wow, you guys are great. The filename had a spanish "i" that subsonic didn't seem to like. The odd thing is that its okay for unusual characters in the mp3id area. Thank you.

All part of the unpaid service :lol:
What version of SS are you using because I remember a fix for UTF characters in playlists some time ago?
