Weird collection problem

[Thomas Olsen]

Can anyone confirm that if files have signs like [] or () in their filenames they 
wont get indexed correctly?

I have been trying to track down the problem and I think this is the case. 
They get indexed but you cannot edit track details or add them to the playlist 
and sometimes they just disappear.

Just now I've tried with the Rolling Stones album "Tattoo You" where the files 
had names like "11. Waiting On A Friend.[www.lokotorrents.com].mp3" (yes I 
know it's illegal in most countries). The album showed up in the collection 
but the file tags couldn't be edited and the tracks couldn't be played. I could 
search for a title and the album was found but the track wasn't shown.
Then I removed the ".[www.lokotorrents.com]" part from a couple (sic!) but not 
all of the file names and suddenly all the tracks are identified correctly and 
can be both edited and played!

/me thinks this is weird...

BTW: This also counts when the above mentioned signs are in directory names.

BTW2: I'm using KDE 4.3.3 and Amarok 2.2.1 on Kubuntu 9.10.
