Is it possible to make a rule that finds textfiles containing any of the special swedish charters å, ä, ö, Å, Ä, or Ö

Mabye via some script or something?

Content Contain dont seem to work since it's not a word.

You can try "contains match" instead which does a direct search. More reliable but also more time consuming.

Trying the Content - Contain Match with
If any
(...)å
(...)ä
(...)ö

but no luck, running on a test folder containing 3 files an 2 of these have swedish language.

I don't think you need the ... before it as it's implied. If it still doesn't work, email support with a test file where it fails as well as the rule you are using.

Resuming this problem again.

I have noticed that my .srt files do not contain the swedish letters åäö, but uses other letters instead.
"Â", "‰" and "ˆ"

I can get this to work local on a folder on my mac mini, but when i move my testfiles to the same folderstructure on my nas the rules do not match.

when i run it localy.

I have my nas shares mounted as afp:// shares and not smb:// if that makes any diffrent?

Tested the same on a smb:// mounted share, no diffrent, seems like it wount read the content of the file.
I have a rule that rename the file to xxxx.en.srt if the swedish letters are not matched from contain, and that rule goes in on the swedish files when they are on the nas.
