Hi, When I have an album with a dash in the name, Tag Source discogs gets the 401 Unauthorized error. An example of an album is: On A Clear Day You Can See Forever - Original Broadway Cast Recording. If I change the album tag to be: On A Clear Day You Can See Forever, discogs runs fine. Is this an error or did I miss something in the documentation? Gary ---

Discog's api search, used for many of the discogs websource scripts, seems to have trouble with non-alphanumeric characters. Queries containing them tend to get 401'd. One has to use regex or replace script functions to remove them from artist or album fields used in the query. ---

Sorry I'm so late to respond. I thought I'd have to potentially use replace. Thanks for the quick reply. Gary
