Hi Folks, I came accross this when I upgraded from 6.2.2 to 6.5.1 recently. I'm wondering if anyone has filed a bug, and if not, what the proper way to go about filing one is.
If you have a '#' in a directory name within your library (like Big Star "#1 Record" or "Reggae Compilation #3") slimserver >= 6.5.0 pukes when attempting to play a song from that directory. Filenames are ok with the '#' - "Funk #49", for example, plays fine. I have a lot of directories like this, and I'd rather not start renaming classic album titles because of a slimserver bug, so I've backed down to 6.3.1 which works like a charm. I run slimserver on a linux system.
