MM3alpha7 - Flac file creation name bug with "/"

Hi,

Testing MMalpha 7 on Windows Vista.

I was ripping a cd which was autotagged from Amazon. One of the song names was a multiple title that looked like:

"Un Poco Loco \ Chant Song"

Note the "\" character.

When MM wrote the flac files it create a sub-dir named:

"Un Poco Loco"

with a file named "Chant Song.flac" as the song file.

I don't know if this is as designed behavior but it wasn't what I expected.

I changed the "\" to "/" which solves my current bug.

Thanks.

It's not a bug really, the "\" is used to indicate subfolders.

Okay, but neither character is a legal character for a file name. In the case of "/" MM correctly changes it to a "-", I would of thought the same rule would apply to ""? Why would I want to create a file directory when creating the name of a song from within MM?
