FYI: Dot (unicode) Character causes not detected Album

[kulak]

Hi,  this is FYI since I have found a workaround.

I had problem adding album named Dear･･･ from group dream.  Here is link to album: https://www.discogs.com/master/1142895-Dream-Dear

Note: dots after the album name.  It seems that these dots caused Jellyfin to fail to find this album when I used "refresh metadata" "new and changed files".

I applied changes in the following order:

1. Renaming directory from Dear･･･ to Dear.  It did not work.
2. Using file tag editor and renaming album from Dear･･･ to Dear and uploading changed .flac files.  It did not work.
3. Renaming file named Dear･･･.m3u to be Dear.m3u.  Step 3 it worked.

I don't know if renaming just folder and m3u file would have been enough.  It might be a problem with just file name handling and not tags.

don't forget you are dealing with a computer, it doesn't equate things the way humans do

f.e. your text also can not be searched at the site you linked, it fails https://www.discogs.com/search?q=Dream+D...5&type=all

the replacement works https://www.discogs.com/search?q=Dream+Dear...&type=all
