a little bug in nzb creation
Posted: Mon Mar 22, 2010 7:58 pm
I noticed this after a while with some non-English subject lines with diacritical letters. I often export headers from a search and send the nzb to a linux server that runs nzbget.
nzbget gives an error such as this:
So as a workaround, I edit the nzb to replace the diacritical à with i.
But I thought you'd like to know, so you could fix it if you wanted, i.e. it shouldn't be allowed to stick the à in there as a single-byte character.
nzbget gives an error such as this:
Code: Select all
