Once again, I regularly get sessions for mixing or editing jobs from other departments which contain special characters, since they are an inherent part of german orthography.
And since obviously not all pictureeditors, soundeditors and recordists are aware of related issues, I regularly have to re-link not found files, manually, one after the other.
This is an issue in dayly work, no matter if it could be avoided, or whatever, so I would like to have a tool in my software, which eases the re-linking of the not found content. Just something like “show similar filenames” in re-linking-dialog. Not more.
(I’m aware that english-speaking costumers do not have those problems cause they do not have those letters, but in germany those äöüß are found in many many words and btw as four seperate keys on every computer-keyboard)
