subdownloader doesnt start downloading subtitles anymore

[Daniel Șerbănescu]

When I want some subtitles for my movies I open subdownloader scan for subtitles, and after I filter subtitles for 1 language... and press download ... most of the times the app doesnt do nothing... it opens me the "downloading files..." dialog and stays like that forever... In the past few days I've been able to download subtitles only once out of ... lets say 10 times...
I thought it's something about opensubtitles.org... now I think it's about the application itself...

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 and the version 2.0.13 of subdownloader

Hi Daniel,

Could you try running SD from command line and paste the results?

Thanks

here it is:
cyberrider@cyberrider-laptop:~$ subdownloader

  import md5

    downloadFullPath = os.path.join(folderPath, subFileName).decode('utf8')

    return codecs.utf_8_decode(input, errors, True)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u0103' in position 21: ordinal not in range(128)

It seems to be an ascii coded error... is it because my OS or SD if is it because my OS how to fix it?
thanks in advance
