Strange recording folder name

[VCR58]

...However, I discovered a second Linux box on the network cannot see shared folders with a semicolon in the folder name. They just don't show up.

Actually, the other Linux box will show the shared folders with semicolons as shortnames also, so I can see them.

I just took a closer look at this. A colon should definitely have been removed on either Windows or Linux. It's not entirely clear why it wasn't. Was Schedules Direct your EPG source? (wondering if it might have a unicode character that looked like a colon, but wasn't)

The filename is correct so maybe directory names use different logic?

I do have SD as my EPG source. 

I suppose it could be some unicode character. However, I have three different movie folder names and they all appear as semicolons. They usually are in the title when there are sequels. These are the titles with semicolons I have currently on my NextPVR Linux server.

I've found the cause and fixed for the next build.

It related to 'Use Movie.Name.(YEAR) format for movies if possible' setting, which took things down a different path, with slightly different logic for how the name was handled.

Awesome! Thanks for fixing this.
