java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed to create directory

When subscribing to a podcast, i received the following error message with one subscription:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed to create directory
I think this has to do with the name of the directory that is being created, which apparently has ":" in it (like the name "Lecture: Research 150407"
Windows does not allow to create directorynames with specific characters in it.
Because I cannot change the podcast name (thats the remote podcast servers job) I am unable to receive those podcasts through subsonic.

Any workarounds for this?

Thanks
Prem

Hi Prem,

There's no work-around, I'm afraid, but it will be fixed in the next release. See also http://forum.subsonic.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=899.

Thanks!
