Case sensitive files and insensitive removal

Added several files a while ago ("Carry on ..." movies), when I re-encoded at a higher quality I instead named them "Carry On ...". Now the server has both names listed, even though they only differ by the capitalisation of a single letter (ie, "O" instead of "o").

Basically this means that the server is adding files in a case sensitive manner, but not removing them when asked to Rescan (as it's doing a case-insensitive compare).

Suggested resolution - check if the filesystem itself is case sensitive and use that for checking file names.
