Please, give it a rest! You are *W R O N G*. -My- Python URLs are
encoded by urllib (a standard Python library) - not by hand by me. They
*ARE* perfectly fine. However, you can -decide- not to encode certain
characters. Which is what was ORIGINALLY asked. The fact that LMS *can*
decode these proves they are correct (let alone the fact that they are
encoded by a standard library).

I was not given a wrong answer to a wrong question. The answer I was
given was perfectly correct.



*Material debug:* 1. Launch via http: //SERVER:9000/material/?debug=json
(Use http: //SERVER:9000/material/?debug=json,cometd to also see update
messages, e.g. play queue) 2. Open browser's developer tools 3. Open
console tab in developer tools 4. REQ/RESP messages sent to/from LMS
will be logged here.
