Hello! I noticed Amarok refuses to play files whose paths contain any square bracket ([ or ]). Perhaps there are other characters not supported, too.

Amarok does add them to the collection when scanning, and it reads their tags correctly, it just doesn't play them. If I rename the files/folders so that there are no square brakets, it plays the files correctly.
