I have a library of music in flac format stored on a synology DS214+
NAS. I've written a bit of code, (none multitasking assembler) which
scans the library, lists the contents, opens each and every file and
checks the vorbis tags for certain criteria I prefer.

Just in case it interests anyone..
Running this on Sunfish takes 123219 cs or  ~20.5 minutes.
On Lanman98 it takes 80838cs or  ~13.5 minutes.
Exactly the same code and library.

But I do have a problem. I think there are still a few, very few I
hope, files in the library that have utf8 characters. My policy is to
change these when I can find them to normal ascii chars but it is
finding them that's my problem.

I have seen two effects of these chars above &80, one is that the RO
filer shows files (text default) but they have no name at all. Worse
though are files that don't show at all in the filer.

Any good ideas (code wise) of how to find these pesky files would be
appreciated.


Thanks

Bob.
