File name with ( not allowed.

I was uploading a file named videoplayback (3).mp4, but can't upload it . Receives an error File name with ( not allowed..
Is there a special reason to filter the filename with (, because people have multiple files with the same name with prefix.

And in Linux , it is stored the same way my file was.

So, if there is no special reason then this can be corrected.

At the moment it's quite strict with the allowed characters:

piccolo_api/piccolo_api/media/base.py

Lines 63 to 70 in ef105f7

	ALLOWED_CHARACTERS = (
	*string.ascii_letters,
	*string.digits,
	" ",
	"-",
	"_",
	".",
	)

You can override it using the allowed_characters parameter.

However, I think we should just add ( and ) to ALLOWED_CHARACTERS, because as you say it's very common.

I have added '(' and ')' as allowed character. see here
