#3607: Can not import songs with Tilda (~) in the filename
-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  anonymous  |       Owner:  ijr    
     Type:  defect     |      Status:  new    
 Priority:  minor      |   Milestone:  unknown
Component:  mythmusic  |     Version:  head   
 Severity:  medium     |     Mlocked:  0      
-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
 I just upgraded to recent SVN 13635 from an older SVN version from earlier
 this year.  I had no problems scanning for new music prior.  I have a
 large library of mp3s that I keep on a remote file server.  After trying
 to scan for a handful of new tracks, they never showed up.  I was unable
 to figure it out until I truncated my mythmusic tables and started from
 scratch trying to import the entire library.

 It turns out that the only tracks (less than 5% of my library)
 successfully imported are the ones that did not contain a "~" in the final
 name.  The naming standard I use for my tracks (and that have worked
 without flaw in mythmusic until recently upgrading to current SVN, is
 "Track# ~ Artist - SongTitle.mp3"

 I believe there has been a regression somewhere in the changes probably
 associated with ticket #3041 but I can't be positive.

 Until this is fixed, anyone using a tilda "~" in their file names can not
 use mythmusic.
