Tracks with special characters are not recognized

[MustThinkOfAName]

I have that specific track that apparently has a big of an issue at being searched for.

The track's title is *
The album is Before the Dawn Heals Us
The artist is M83.

The track itself is an instrumental, which I submitted but when I go back to search for it. It returns no results.

Thank you in advance!

Special characters in track name, artist name, and album name will be filtered out by prepare_input (in both LRCGET and LRCLIB):

• https://github.com/tranxuanthang/lrcget/blob/main/src-tauri/src/utils.rs#L5
• https://github.com/tranxuanthang/lrclib/blob/main/server/src/utils.rs#L5

Your track name will become empty, so that's why you cannot search for it.

Thank you for notifying me this issue. I will think of a way to fix for songs that only contain special characters.

Thank you!

It could be related but I noticed that an album/track are completely missing from the client's list.
The album is named 10.00 and track 10.01 (2023 Remix) and 10.02 (2023 Remix)

They don't appear in the search, track, album, artist page. I have other tracks that are only made of numbers with some dots/dashes that are working; but those have "normal" album names.

So it could be that there is an issue with album names and unconventional characters?
