Hi,
I've been using MPD+Sonata for a while now (two great pieces of software), unfortunately I just tried to play some songs stored in files with unicode characters (i think they're unicode, the ones with the accents, like 'è') and they refuse to play.
I modified my mpd.conf file to set filesystem_charset to both ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8 (restarting mpd and rebuilding the DB each time) and then it simply refused to add the songs to the database. Furthermore, when I uncommented the line again, MPD still won't add them to the database.
Any ideas what's going on?
Thanks in advance!

ah... ok! it seems that the problem is deeper than that. I have my music stored on an NTFS drive and it would appear that these files have disappeared, as far as linux is concerned. I'll move the thread to something more appropriate
And that was fixed by a remount. Sorry for wasting everyone's time! :-/
