Hi everybody!
Now that CeBIT is over, it's time to deal with other things again...

I see no reason why this setup should fail to open filenames with a
colon in them.

Hmm. I don't know what Qt does with the backslash. Probably leaves it
alone and passes it open(). The shell, on the other hand, will remove it.

That would be a pretty stupid heuristics. By the way, in a real URL, the
colon always comes before the dots. And it's followed by "//", so there
is little chance to misinterpret it.

Even Windows allows multiple dots nowadays.
Could you please run "strace -o log dvbcut", try to open the files,
quit, compress (gzip/bzip2) the log file and send it to me?
