[Bug 596242] Re: mythvideo does not find files with german Umlaut (äöü)

 

I don't have this problem and I have lots of AVI-Files for mythvideo
with german umlauts. All are displayed and played. No LC_ALL is set. Is
it solved in QT** as someone in the other discussion said it could be a
QT issue?  It could also be a filesystem issue. I used first ext4 and
now xfs for the videos, both without naming problems.

I use mythbuntu as backend/frontend and another frontend on a plain
ubuntu 10.04 with the locations of the files mounted with sshfs.

On both machines are:
$ dpkg -l mythtv-frontend mythvideo libqtcore4 linux-image-2.6.32-25-generic | less
ii  mythtv-frontend 0.23.0+fixes24158-0ubuntu2             A personal video recorder application (client)
ii  mythvideo 0.23.0+fixes24104-0ubuntu2                      A generic video player frontend module for Myt
ii  libqtcore4 4:4.6.2-0ubuntu5.1                                Qt 4 core module
ii  linux-image-2.6.32-25-generic 2.6.32-25.44      Linux kernel image for version 2.6.32 on x86

$ locale
LANG=de_CH.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="de_CH.UTF-8"
...
LC_IDENTIFICATION="de_CH.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

What QT-Version do you have? Is the problem still there without the fix
above?

When searching for new video files in mythvideo the following file was not recognized.

  "Bibi und Tina 4x04 Gestüt Szendrö in Gefahr.avi"

When changing the "ö" to "oe" and the "ü" to "ue", for example with a soft link, ...

  $ ln -s Bibi\ und\ Tina\ 4x04\ Gestüt\ Szendrö\ in\ Gefahr.avi Bibi\ und\ Tina\ 4x04\ Gestuet\ Szendroe\ in\ Gefahr.avi

...the link is recognized and the file can be played in mythvideo.
