Steps to reproduce

  1. Download audiobook "Ich Lebe" by Series "Hamburg Sequence" from Thariot

Expected behaviour

I just tried to save several audiobooks locally on my phone. The first audiobook worked. The second one didn't. Every time I try, the Audiobookshelf app shuts down on its own. This phenomenon occurs with all audiobooks from the "Hamburg Sequence" series. If I select any other audio book, it works again.... Do you have a solution for this?

Can you check if there is XML inside the metadata?

I have looked at the audiobooks in question again but have not seen anything conspicuous. I looked at the metadata with the mp3tag tool, but I didn't see anything with xml or anything else.

Attached are a few screenshots.

Ha, I have found the error. It was probably the file names. They had the following format: "Ich.Lebe..mp3". I changed this to the following: "Ich Lebe.mp3" and then the download works fine.

Maybe you should add a rotine that checks the file names for consistency or something....

I don't think this is an issue anymore on newer versions since I can download a file with that name but let me know if this is still an issue for you
