German umlauts in pop-up bubble are not shown (Encoding)

[Martin H]

1) Ubuntu 10.04

2) Rhythmbox v0.13.1

3) Listening to German web-radio stations song titles or names containing Umlauts are not displayed properly in the pop-up bubbles that show when a new song starts playing

4) The attachment shows a screenshort where the word 'hört' turns into something like 'hA¶rt'

I assume it is an encoding issue. Assuming that the radio station's PCs are Windows based, the tags are most probably not UTF8 encoded. As I can not influence those tags, it would be nice if Rhythmbox would be able to detect/ deal with multiple encodings
