Hi,

I have a CD that has ISO-8859-1 encoded file names; nautilus displays files
that have "broken" names with a note that the name has invalid encoding, and
file operations fail.

This is not just for CDs. Nautilus (and any application based on GIO or
the older GnomeVFS) assumes filenames are encoded in UTF-8 for
filesystems that don’t specify the encoding. Any other behavior would be
broken.

That would be a difference between CDs and other filesystems.

Does it happen with gvfs-copy too?
If so, could you strace a gvfs-copy from a file with such an incorrect
encoding, on a regular filesystem (where it should work) and on a CD?

Thanks,

The main issue I have with this is that file operations fail. That is, I
cannot even rename or move the file, so the only way to fix this is to
use the command line.

Hey Simon,

this is an old bug.

Could you please still reproduce this issue with newer nautilus version
like 3.4.2-1+build1 or 3.8.2-3 ?

thanks

Pedro
