can not browse/open specific directory

[Jan]

I am using Exaile 0.3 in the "file" mode. When trying to open a specific directory nothing happens. Exaile can wether browse the directory nor queue the containing files. On the command line I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/exaile/xl/panels/files.py", line 284, in row_activated
    self.load_directory(dir)
  File "/usr/share/exaile/xl/panels/files.py", line 312, in load_directory
    full = os.path.join(dir, path)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/posixpath.py", line 65, in join
    path += '/' + b
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xa2 in position 18: unexpected code byte

The directory contains a file which name contains a special character; probably this is the cause.

Got the same problem with a smbmounted directory on a windows xp machine. File and directory names also aren't displayed properly (german Umlauts for example in Nautilus) due to the encoding, i assume.
