Description (last modified by Raymond Wagner)

Jamu.py crashes with the following error:

troy@ebony:/usr/local/bin$ jamu -MVI
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/jamu", line 6420, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/local/bin/jamu", line 6388, in main
    configuration.setUseroptions(default_config)
  File "/usr/local/bin/jamu", line 1287, in setUseroptions
    self.config['ignore-directory'].append(unicode(cfg.get(section, option), 'utf8'))
TypeError: decoding Unicode is not supported

jamu.conf contains the following entries for ignore-directory:

[ignore-directory]
ignore01: /var/lib/mythtv/videos/Movies/.AppleDouble/
ignore02: /var/lib/mythtv/videos/Movies/Childrens/.AppleDouble/
ignore03: /var/lib/mythtv/videos/Series/.AppleDouble/
ignore04: /var/lib/mythtv/videos/Documentaries/.AppleDouble/
ignore05: .AppleDouble/
ignore08: Movies/.AppleDouble/

Removing the ignore-directory options stops the crash.

Alternatively altering line 1287 in jamu.py fixes the crash:

from:

                    self.config['ignore-directory'].append(unicode(cfg.get(section, option), 'utf8'))

to:

                    self.config['ignore-directory'].append(cfg.get(section, option))

The regex entry also needs fixing: http://mythtv.pastebin.com/pHurujGD

I'm awaiting approval from Doug Vaughan, the author of Jamu, before comitting the above patch.
