Bug Description

When using the rhythmbox library and it's playlists, i've the problem,
that mixxx can't load songs, where the filename contains umlauts.

This problem happened only, using the rhythmbox library and not when i imported the same songs directly to mixxx.

Here is the songname, using the rhytmthbox library:
Tim Toupet Mini Disco Hits 2009 1 So Ein Sch%C2%94ner Tag (Fliegerlied) (Kids-Mix).mp3 = can't found

and here the same song, imported by mixxx:
Tim Toupet Mini Disco Hits 2009 1 So Ein Sch”ner Tag (Fliegerlied) (Kids-Mix).mp3 = can be played
The mixxx import can be played, the rhythmbox import can't played.

The System is:
Arch Linux OS, 32bit
Pentium III, usinge a soundblaster live soundcard
Version of Mixxx: Version 1.8.0, Rev. 2620-1

Hey Wolfgang,

I'm really curious -- how well does Mixxx work on your Pentium 3? What clock speed is it? What sort of latency do you get? Do you run it with the waveforms enabled or disabled?

If 1.8.0 runs smoothly on a Pentium 3 I think it'd be a small miracle :)

Regards,
RJ
