Describe the bug
I have a LiveTV M3U tuner and XMLTV TV guide set up. When I try to record any TV programm with double quotes in it's name the issue occurs, i.e. ffmpeg fails. As I understood this happens 'cause of unescaped double quotes in cmdline while instantiating ffmpeg. Please check.

System (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Debian
  • Virtualization: LXC
  • Clients: Browser
  • Browser: Firefox 78.14.0esr
  • Jellyfin Version: 10.7.7-1
  • FFmpeg Version: 4.3.2-1-buster (Jellyfin)
  • Playback: none
  • Hardware Acceleration: none
  • Installed Plugins: none
  • Reverse Proxy: none
  • Base URL: none
  • Networking: Bridge
  • Storage: local

Expected behavior
Recording is done successfully.
