I am doing a search through a list of files but the text the casing

going full on regular expressions?
path = "V:\\Jinsy\\incoming\\assets"
media=["LIHOU ISLAND.MOV", "MVI_1449.MOV"]
def FindMedia(path):
result = []
for root, dirs, files in os.walk(path):
for iFile in files:
if iFile in media:
filePath = os.path.join(root, iFile)
result.append(filePath)
return result
for filePath in FindMedia(path):
log(filePath)
Change
if iFile in media:
to
if iFile.upper() in media:
and keep media all upper-case.

Converting to uppercase or lowercase doesn't always work as desired.
For example, when using Turkish you can have problems, because the
Turkish variant of the Latin alphabet splits i/I into two different
letters, namely dotted "i" (uppercase is "İ" or "\u0130") and dotless
"I" (lowercase is "ı" or "\u0131").
