    • Type: Bug Report
    • Status: Fixed
    • Priority: High (2)
    • Component: Playback: Music
    • Estimate: None/Small/Medium/Large None
    • Version: 1.23
    When playing music with artist names like AC/DC or Coverdale/Page and using the enhanced “Now Playing” screen SwissCenter is unable to store the downloaded images in the “/fanart/artists/" directory as the path contains an additional slash.

    (In revision:1683) Downloading of artist fanart images from Google and Last.fm now ensures that artist names containing special characters are made filesystem safe, ie. characters such as /, ?, %, etc. are replaced with _ in the filename.
