I'm experiencing character encoding issues with NTFS3 drives in the main array on unRAID 7.2.0-beta.3. The NTFS driver appears to be defaulting to ISO-8859-1 encoding, which can't handle Unicode characters that are common in filenames.
System Info:
unRAID Version: 7.2.0-beta.3
Affected: All NTFS drives in main array
Issue:
The system logs are filling up with encoding conversion errors for various Unicode characters.
Oct 1 13:37:20 kernel: ntfs3(md5p1): failed to convert "2019" to iso8859-1
Oct 1 13:37:2 kernel: ntfs3(md1p1): failed to convert "0142" to iso8859-1
Oct 1 13:37:24 kernel: ntfs3(md1p1): failed to convert "2013" to iso8859-1
Oct 1 13:37:26 kernel: ntfs3: 16 callbacks suppressed
Oct 1 13:37:49 kernel: ntfs3(md1p1): failed to convert "014d" to iso8859-1
Oct 1 13:37:55 kernel: ntfs3(md5p1): failed to convert "3010" to iso8859-1
These errors repeat hundreds of times and the kernel is suppressing callbacks due to the volume. The NTFS3 driver should support UTF-8 encoding (via nls=utf8 or iocharset=utf8 mount option) to properly handle international characters and common punctuation marks in filenames. However, I cannot find any GUI setting in 7.2.0-beta.3 to configure NTFS mount options.
