Bug report

Describe the bug

Here is a clear and concise description of what the problem is:

Hi everyone,

I have found a bug in Kodi 19 where the disk drive volume names are displayed as hexadecimal characters (twice each) instead of the actual volume names (via File Manager, Videos - Files, etc).

Previous versions of Kodi for Android did not have this bug.

Thank you everyone in advance.

Previous versions of Kodi for Android displayed disk volume names normally where as Kodi 19 displays them as hexadecimal characters (twice each).
