hi all.
i have been using this program for a couple of hours and it looks very interesting.
the problem is that i cannot play some of my music because the filenames contain characters in my language (faroese) like á, ð, ý and others.
the filenames show up in xbmc just fine but when i click on them it says "playlist playback aborted. too many consecutive failed items"
the log file shows that xbmc cannot handle these special characters.
i think i have looked through the whole program but i am unable to find any options what can fix this problem.

Welcome to the forums!
Would you mind showing us the log file? It should be in ~/Library/Logs/xbmc.log
Are the files local or are they served over smb?
Cheers,
Jonathan

this log file is around 140 kb in size, so there is little point pasting the whole file.
i am pasting the error itself plus a few lines at each end.

the files are local and accessed through the music->itunes route.
the filename should be /Users/ew/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Compilations/Hanus G. Johansen/14 Vónsvikin.mp3
if you need the whole log file just let me know. i can mail it, or maybe you can point me to some site where i can upload it.
thanks

That has been like it for quite sometime I believe, and it won't affect playback in anyway - it just means ape tags won't be read.
Looks like the .so needs rebuilding perhaps?
