null extensions (empty-none-no) show up in Video filter

Post by ion-christopher »

SOLVED
Version 1.3.3.658b (x86)

Okay, so every file without any extension is showing up as a video, when the video filter is on (and the subject/search field is blank). This is not true for any other filter.

BET YOU BEER MONEY YOU CAN'T GUESS WHY:

The filter list for video:

ext:3g2;3gp;3gp2;3gpp;amr;asf;avi;bdmv;bik;d2v;divx;drc;dsa;dsm;dss;dsv;flc;fli;flic;flv;ifo;ivf;m1v;m2ts;m2v;m4b;m4p;m4v;mkv;mp2v;mp4;mpe;mpeg;mpg;mpv2;mov;ogm;pss;pva;qt;ram;ratdvd;rm;rmm;rmvb;roq;rpm;smk;swf;tp;tpr;ts;vob;vp6;wm;wmp;wmv;wmv_sm;flv_sm;mp4_sm;gp2_sm;

I can't find any errors, so maybe this is a bug in the library?

HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT:

I tried using only MP4 in the filter -

ext:MP4;

Got the same result. (blank and MP4 videos - at least it's consistent)

I tried - hey - maybe that ... you finish the thought.

Check your filter doesn't end with a ;

If it does it will allow the empty extension.



Code: Select all

ext:MP4;
is MP4 and the empty extension.



Code: Select all

ext:MP4
is just MP4.




I should probably disallow the empty extension after the last ; (eg: you must explicitly specify it in the list: ext:;MP4)
