If the encoding isn't UTF-8, this may be because the songs have been copied to the NAS from a different platform/charset such as Windows/Windows-1252.

Thanks for your comprehensive reply!

Well, the file names don't necessarily contain the å,ä,ö characters, but the folder containing the files does every time.

Regarding the missing tracks from a certain album, these missing tracks do all contain the å,ä,ö characters.

How do I check what sort of characters the files contain?

You wouldn't happen to have any pointers as how to go about your third suggestion, how to install the correct locale and charset on the NAS? Would this also help with the folders containing the non-ASCII characters?

Thank you once again. Minimserver on the NAS is surely a pleasure to browse and to deal with.
