Matthew, thanks for info.

xine-ui uses strings in locale encoding. There I don't see
locale-specific functions in the header file, so I think too, there is
required recoding into UTF-8. Some iconv() code already is in the
xine-ui and xine-lib. We should do some copy&paste from xine-lib...

Cheers,
