Having a strange issue that I tracked down to “corrupt” characters in the “title” field after updating a file with Jaikoz.
I began having problems with Orb Media Server hanging on specific MP3 files. When I investigated these files, I found that the “Title” field (only when viewed via the file properties of Windows Explorer) showed bogus characters. If I get rid of these bogus characters, the hang problem in Orb goes away.
The interesting thing is that when viewing the file’s metadata via Jaikoz or MediaInfo, I don’t see any of these “corrupt” characters in any of the fields. Any ideas?
Here’s a screenshot of one of the problem files (the title field was fine before updating w/ Jaikoz).
I’m using v 3.6.0, but this has been occurring for a few versions now (2 or 3?). I’m on Windows 7 x64.
