This looks OK. What charset does MinimServer report at the start of the log messages?

Now it says: Platform default charset is US-ASCII but before it said: Platform default charset is UTF-8
Not sure how this got changed..... I just upgraded from 0.7.2 to 0.8.1 but as I scroll back in the terminal window, I can see that in the log when I first started 0.8.1 it also said UTF-8. After a reboot of the VZ it now says US-ASCII. Not sure what this means for the characters....

If I SSH into this VZ and go to a directory where there is an accented character, it shows without problem. When I use 'folder view' inside an UPNP controller, it doesn't show the same directory at all. This was the same with the 0.7.2 version.

Mind you, there is no problem if there are accented characters inside the tags, it is only a problem if the directory or filename have special characters.
