MythVideo scan is failing to find directories/files with non-ascii
characters (e.g. é, ö). Also, if the directory is named using ASCII
characters but the series title isn't, artwork is downloaded but not
displayed.[[BR]]

Comment(by Robin Hill <myth@…>):

I've had a further dig into this (adding "file,extra" to the backend
verbose settings), and the problem is that the entries are not in the
QFileInfoList in StorageGroup::GetFileInfoList. I can't work out why
though, as I've written a small application which uses the same logic and
that does list all the files/directories.

Comment(by cpinkham):

I'm unable to reproduce this, can you attach the relevant part of the
backend logs when running mythbackend with "-v file,extra,network". That
will list out the directory being scanned and files/subdirs found as they
are added to the result list. I want to see the requests coming into the
backend from the frontend as well as the StorageGroup logs when it did the
directory scan.

Comment(by Robin Hill <myth@…>):

I've attached the log section as requested - this shows it scanning the
Test directory and finding the Test1 and Test3 subdirectories, but
completely missing the Tést2 subdirectory. The attached application uses
the same QT calls to scan the same directory, but lists all three
subdirectories. I can only think that some global setting (e.g. locale)
is being done elsewhere in the MythTV code which is causing QT to ignore
these directories - I can't find any documentation on any applicable QT
settings though.

Comment(by Robin Hill <myth@…>):

I've eventually tracked this down to using "su - mythuser" to launch the
backend - this was failing to set the LC_ALL and LANG environment
variables. Adding these to /etc/environment or launching the backend via
"su mythuser" results in the backend successfully scanning all
directories. These changes aren't required by the test program I wrote
though (it successfully reports all directories in both cases).
