With server 1.5 beta 47 I noticed that several MKVs aren't recognized any longer. I now found the solution:
Server 1.5 has problems with special chars in the filename (for example with german 'umlauts'). If there is an 'Umlaut' in the filename, connected can't play the mkv!
This problem only appears with MKV! Other files with 'umlauts' are played well.

Please fix this annoying bug asap. Thanx!

NOT FIXED in Build 73 :-(
Still MKV files with "Umlauts"(ä, Ä, ö, Ö, ü, Ü, ß) are not recognized and can't be played...

This is a REAL showstopper!
