When trying to play a file called "K:\GBPVR\Video's\ë.mpg", the MVP crashes.
This also happens when watching a program through LiveTV with such a character (again only on MVP), for example "RTL GP Formule 1 - Maleisië_20090404_10551210".

MVP playback requested: K:\GBPVR\Video's\ë.mp (shortname)
MVP playback requested: (longname)

Logs attached.

Longname's are not supported by the MVP and utf-8 is not fully implemented by GBPVR. There is a config.xml setting to send shortnames.

Changing this setting from false to true did indeed do the trick:
<MVPUseShortFilenamesOnNMT>true</MVPUseShortFilenamesOnNMT>

Thanks Martin
