Bug Description

Using a fully updated Ubuntu 7.04 on a tower pc:

Some Shoutcast radio playlists make Rhythmbox exit immediately upon opening them.
I suspect it has to with the Turkish u+umlaut character (shown as y+umlaut when opened with gedit).

When I manually copy paste the url in Rhythmbox, the radio plays just fine. Some weird obversation:
- after manually adding radio station url is in my radio list, double clicking the crasher playlist does not affect Rhythmbox.
- after removing the manually added item, double clicking the crasher playlist returns to crashing Rhythmbox every single time.

I'll try attaching this playlist.

When I run Rhythmbox from the command line, the following error message is shown:

"RhythmDB-ERROR **: file rhythmdb.c: line 2676 (rhythmdb_entry_set_internal): assertion failed: (g_utf8_validate (g_value_get_string (value), -1, NULL))
aborting...
Aborted (core dumped)"

Also should note my default language for this setup is Turkish...

There doesn't seem to have been any activity on this bug for over a month...
Did anyone try to confirm by opening the attached playlist with Rhythmbox yet?
