Umlaut - Ice - 2023-08-09
The Log shows several entries like this one:
2023-08-06 02:31:14 file
mnt/media4/D/Die Toten Hosen/Im Auftrag des Herrn/9 - W�nsch DIR was.mp3: No such file or directoryerror from daemon in stream: Error grabbing logs: invalid character '\x00' looking for beginning of value
why can't the umlauts of existing files be interpreted correctly?
RE: Umlaut - Venson - 2023-08-15
Hey @Ice
What is your OS?
I would be surprised if that is actually related to the umlaut, do other titles without umlauts in the same folder be detected?
RE: Umlaut - Ice - 2023-08-16
As far as i can see are all files dedected except the one's with umlaut.
The files with umlaut are listed in the Playlist but cannot played (pls see attachment), instead it shows an error message Like:
Playback error
This client is not compatible with the media and the server is not sending a compatible media format.
Jellyfin runs in a Docker-Desktop (windows 10) Container (linuxserver/jellyfin) Vesion 10.8.10.

There are some other errors in Log:

Such entries [ERR] are repeated every few hours. Unfortunately, no file name is given to remove or correct the file. Therefore i cannot say if this is also related to the problem with "umlaut".
RE: Umlaut - Ice - 2023-09-13
The log shows other strange entries:
2023-08-06 02:28:51 jellyfin | [mp3 @ 0x560fee8d6b00] Estimating duration from bitrate, this may be inaccurate
2023-08-06 02:28:51 jellyfin | [mp3 @ 0x559c182d8b00] Estimating duration from bitrate, this may be inaccurate
1970-01-01 01:00:00 error from daemon in stream: Error grabbing logs: invalid character '\x00' looking for beginning of value
the last entry has a wrong date. An invalid character appears to result in an error.
The previous entries only go up to 06 August but no further. Today is 13 September, where are the log entries between 6 August and 13 September?
RE: Umlaut - Ice - 2023-09-27
More Errors:

I did change the name of the folder Communiqué to Communique but now the filename has also the kind of "Umlaut" 'é' ...
RE: Umlaut - skribe - 2023-09-27
I saw a user with a similar issue the other day related to special characters, but it did not seem related to Jellyfin in the end. The very same file names he was using were working on my server, but his could not find the files. We ultimately decided that it was either the OS or Docker that was having an odd interaction. He suspected it might have been related to WSL.
RE: Umlaut - Ice - 2023-09-27
This is possible because in Docker i can see the Files like that as an example:
"Der Dritte Raum - Klubraum - 03 - H�r mich.mp3"
This way it look also in Jellyfin... So I have to look with Docker-Desktop runing under win10. Do you have a hint on where to look?
RE: Umlaut - skribe - 2023-09-27
Unfortunately not. I don't use it myself, and the other user didn't really provide any other information. They just went off to research the issue.
RE: Umlaut - Ice - 2023-10-31
I have found a solution, after long research and many tests.
Docker-compose.yaml looks now like that:
version: '3.5'
services:
jellyfin:
image: linuxserver/jellyfin
container_name: ICE-JELLYFIN
hostname: ICE
network_mode: 'bridge'
ports:
- 8095:8095
volumes:
- D:\Applications\Jellyfin\config:/config
- D:\Applications\Jellyfin\cache:/cache
- D:\Daten/Video:/mnt/media
- media2:/mnt/media2
- media3:/mnt/media3
restart: 'unless-stopped'
volumes:
media2:
driver_opts:
type: nfs
o: "addr=192.168.1.54,ro"
device: ":/data/Videos"
media3:
driver_opts:
type: cifs
o: "username=<username>,password=<password>,iocharset=utf8"
device: "//192.168.1.55/video"
The solution is the added ",iiocharset=utf8" BUT to take this effect you have to recreate the volumes in docker-desktop.
Important: In Docker desktop, you need to delete the container AND any associated volumes. Running the docker-compose up -d command will recreate everything.
media is an example to include a host local folder with media.
media2 is an example to include a shared folder on a nas configured with nfs-access.
media3 imcludes a cifs share on annother nas (on this share/volume the problem occured).
