[Bug]: File path parsing adding special character if author name has a period
Describe the issue
It looks like the parsing of the file path is adding special characters to the author's name on initial scan. A folder with the name "Rowling, J. K." will result in an author name of "J. Kf Rowling", where the f has an apostrophe. Changing the author folder to "J. K. Rowling" will result in the author name of "J. K.F Rowling" where again, the F will have an apostrophe.
File path ("J. K. Rowling"):
File path ("Rowling, J. K."):
Parsed author:
Author tag:
Current workaround is to not include the periods or just manually fix the metadata by editing the book.
Steps to reproduce the issue
- Create path "J. K. Rowling/My Book Name/Book.m4b" and "Rowling, J. K./My Book Name/Book.m4b"
- Edit book metadata in audiobookshelf for "My Book Name". Author's name will have the special character
