Could you do two things for me.

• Could you use Devel::Peek on the file name coming out of the CSV. I'd like to find out how your string is encoded and if it's a string of characters.

  use Devel::Peek;
  Dump($filename);

• Could you use Devel::Peek on the file name from the disk? I'd like to find out how its encoded on disk.

  use strict;
  use warnings;
  
  use Devel::Peek qw( Dump );
  
  my $dir = '/media/usbdisk/music/checkit/Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young';
  
  opendir(my $dh, $dir)
     or die;
  
  while (defined(my $fn = readdir($dh))) {
     Dump($fn) if / vu$/;
  }
  [download]
