Can't add to media library if filename contains international characters

I can't seem to add files to the media library if the file name contains any international characters. This is not about reading international characters in the playlist or in the media player. I don't mind not being able to read the characters in the playlist, but I do mind not being able to add to the media library. I wanted to know if there's a solution to this. Once again, it's not being able to add files to the media library if the filename (not ID tags) contains international characters. Thanks.

yup i have the same problem. just upgraded to the new version and am missing a lot of songs with international characters. didn't have a problem with the old version.
i can add them manualy which is fine for specific folders but i must have over 100 tunes mixed in with the rest that is going to take forever to find. Any solution or a fix to sort this.
