    MediaPortal Version: 0.2.2.0 (checked with svn 13434)
    MediaPortal Skin: blue two
    Windows Version: XP sp2

    How to reproduce:
    take any mpeg file with non-english name in language that is NOT selected in regional options as language for non-unicode programs; file name is properly shown in gui, but cannot be played (nothing happens).
    Logs are attached - the problem seems to be with tsfilesource filter not supporting unicode.

    Anybody else having this bug?
    I'm using gbpvr for tv recording, with multi-language epg guide, so recorded programs automatically have names according to the guide in different languages.

    I posted a patch for TSFileSource in TSFileSource forum, here.
    I hope they will use it; anyway attached a binary of TSFileSource filter that supports unicode file names.

    Well I found just in case that tsfilesource sources were added to mediaportal svn and my patch was applied to it. I think I should have been notified, but good to know ;)
