Super weird Samba bug-what is in the main folder is not seen by remote PCs????

UPDATE: Looks like it's a known issue and the answer is using the 'mangled names = no' in smb.conf. Will try and update my post later but I think that will fix this.

Could somebody please explain this behaviour? I see this weirdness with multiple folders. So my main media server has some movies shared out:

But over Samba, from another Linux box, the other PC doesn't see one of the folders:

But the missing movie DOES show up elsewhere:

....notice the P7Z... folder? That's where my missing movie was. Does Samba have problems handling colons? Because I see this same problem on other folders that all happen to have a colon in the name.

Known bug? Is there a workaround? Or is the workaround top stop using colons in my names?

Does NFS have this same problem?
