Special characters on video titles

thgdorns commented 4 years ago

When using {title} on the file output, I get a 2544 error when the video title contains special characters. Could those be replaced with underscores?

I need more context, including the command you ran, the output, and what potentially special characters you're talking about. I already try to sanitize filepaths for certain filesystems like Windows.

def sanitize_for_path(value, replace=' '):
    """Remove potentially illegal characters from a path."""

    return re.sub(r'[<>\"\?\\\/\*:]', replace, value)
