MacOs hidden files block scanning #112

Closed MrYann closed 3 months ago

MrYann commented 7 months ago

I execute rsgain on Linux Debian 12 through ssh and hidden files generated by the MacOs file explorer block the flow.

The music folders were previously opened by a MacOs computer, which generated numerous small files with the same name as the original files but preceded by ._ (and are thus hidden). Example: in a folder containing song.mp3, after viewing the folder through "Finder" (the MacOs file explorer) it will also contain a small file named ._song.mp3.

It seems that those ._xxx files confuse rsgain to he point of doing nothing to the rest of the folder.

Sample output:

rsgain easy -Os '/DATA/Media/Musique/Joe Satriani - The Elephants of Mars FLAC'
[✔] Building directory tree...
[✔] Found 1 directory...
[✔] Scanning directory for files...
[✔] Scanning '/DATA/Media/Musique/Joe Satriani - The Elephants of Mars FLAC/._03. Faceless.m4a'
[✘] Could not open input: Invalid data found when processing input

No files were scanned

The folder contains 14 tracks and I see no log file generated whatsoever.

Please let me know if you need more information.

It should be straightforward to add a simple check if a filename begins with ._. I'll implement this in the near future.

MrYann commented 6 months ago

That would do it. However, I suggest you should rather handle « bad » files so that the script skips to the next file instead of skipping to the next folder. Of course, it is easier to ask than to do ;)

Yes, that is the plan. Any file beginning with ._ will be ignored.

To be more résilient, i would suggest to make the script go to next song instead of skipping to next folder when encountering corrupt files. Here, the._name.mp3 files can be ignored by the name pattern, but this does not cover other cases of corrupt files being processed and leading to the whole folder being ignored.
