Library Exclusions: issues with UTF-8, spaces and capitals

[gemow]

I've just discovered and installed Asset UPnP and I'm trying to run a 2nd instance with exclusion. However, I seem to be having an issue with UTF-8 characters:

genre:=variété

becomes, after saving:

genre:=variété

This is quite typical of UTF-8 encoding issues.

So my question is: do exclusions support UTF-8 characters?
If not, is there a way to handle diacritics? (i.e. will genre:=variete match genre:=variété)

I had other questions regarding exclusions. Are spaces taken into account? And what about capital letters?
For example, will:

genre:=variete francaise

match the iTunes genre:

Variete Francaise

(I'm leaving the accents out for now)


Asset is running on Synology DSM 6.2 and I'm configuring Asset from Safari running on macOS 11.

Thanks for the bug report.

This problem has been addressed in Asset R7.1 beta-

Just verified, "genre:=variété" is now stored correctly.
