I did more tests with 0.2.12b, here are the results:
Note: before each test I deleted the ~/.exaile folder.
- Import a normal folder with a valid utf8 name
---> It appears in the collection, but only after pressing Refresh (doesn't seem to be normal)
- Import a folder or file with a broken utf8 name
---> It does not appear in the collection, even after Refresh
---> But it appears after restarting Exaile
---> Play the folder or file cause message "Error: File does not exist"
Conlusion: the "empty collection" problem I reported seem to be gone! (fixed by 172318 ?)
Note: bug 181642 appears to be a duplicate.
The original problem "Can not import file with broken Unicode name" is still present but has changed: now the file appears after restarting Exaile, but cannot be played.
