Share the file, It may be the symbol in it that .NET fail to Decode to standard XML sooo

@@Nacholede, confirmed it's bogus symbol that out of xml specs


@@raynebc, Is there any possibility that eof could write 0x5 hex char instead of space?


Toolkit wise solution is to filter those chars in xml file and then attempt to read.

Wouldn't " " be a more appropriate representation? Also, which XML tag was the offending space in?

[Alex360]

@@raynebc, it was albumName tag after first word

That's not something I think EOF would allow a user to type in, if anything it was probably an odd ASCII character that was in a file (MP3 ?) that was imported.

 

@@Nacholede how was this project created? Can you send me the EOF project file and possibly the offending imported file for testing?

I was able to solve the problem, the name of the album caused the error

Let me upload all the files again and i will PM you with the link

yeah sorry :(

I was a bit busy yesterday, when i get home i will reupload everything 

[raynebc]

After double checking the code, the album name could only have been imported from a Rocksmith XML file or an MP3. It must have been in the ID3 tag of the MP3 file, nobody would have had a reason to manually edit an XML file to have that character before importing it.

 

With the MP3 and EOF files I can make sure any invalid characters get handled where applicable. @@Alex360 I think as a start I can force all non printable ASCII characters to be filtered out of the exported XML.

@@raynebc, as you did for Vocals? yeah i think it's wise, or just filter to xml 1.2 format supported chars ;)
