[Solved] Unicode bug

[streamer]

Hi all,

I discovered a serious unicode bug that prevents UMS from starting up when one of the shared folders starts with a U. Java then interprets the last part in \\server\user as a unicode character, resulting in the following startup error:

Code: Select all

ERROR 2014-12-12 04:08:19.070 [main] A serious error occurred during PMS init
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Less than 4 hex digits in unicode value: '\user' due to end of CharSequence

The same goes for entering that folder and trying to stream from it, the PS3 then throws a DLNA protocol error 2114 when trying to list the shared folders.

Hope you guys can address this issue soon. I would love to give UMS since PMS stops streaming randomly for me...

Thanks!
