after murging the ffmpeg-concat branch, unable to use a title with an apostrophe #182

Closed danielw97 closed 6 months ago

danielw97 commented 6 months ago

Hi again, The new changes are working great, however one issue I've noticed is that ffmpeg doesn't seem to like a title with an apostrophe (') in it. I'm not sure if there is a way to work around this, or if it's just a case of removing the apostrophe before starting. Things are working well otherwise and thanks again for your help in sorting this.

Oh great catch! I've always been in such a habit of removing all punctuation and spaces and stuff from filenames that I don't run across stuff like this.

I added a replacement to escape single quotes in filenames for ffmpeg concat, branch is "pesky-punctuation". Worked in my testing, let me know if it solves the issue for you.

Thanks for looking at this so quickly. I'm still getting the impossible to open error when it gets to the concat stage, and I'm on the pesky-punctuation branch. If it's easier I can just remove the apostrophe from the title, although imagine someone else will come across this in future.

Oh that's weird! Could you share the exact file name that seems to be causing problems?

Hi again, I've just tested using the pesky-punctuation branch and not sure what was going on earlier, but it is working now. Cheers for the quick fix.

Success!! You should go ahead and take the rest of the day off ;)

(thanks as always for your help and collaboration!)
