National character in filenames problem

I have a problem with Audio/Video/Photo filenames containing national characters of my language. Simply such files are not listed both in ServiiGo and Mediabrowser. Only files ontaining only English language letters are available in both clients.
The Serviio console is properly display in my language.
What I have to do to set such files to be seen in Serviio clients?

Re: National character in filenames problem

My language is Polish. My Linux distro is Mageia x86 ver 4. The logfile is huge so it is avaliable from here:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/792 ... erviio.log

So You have details about locale config:
  Code:
[root@media ~]# locale
LANG=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_TIME=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_MONETARY=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_PAPER=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_NAME=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=pl_PL.UTF-8
LC_ALL=
[root@media ~]# rpm -qa | grep locale
locales-pl-2.18-2.mga4
locales-2.18-2.mga4
locales-en-2.18-2.mga4

Re: National character in filenames problem

I use Twonky for DLNA LAN streaming and i have no problems with Polish letters. Twonky has another issue, that files containing my national characters are listed in wrong alphabetic order. It is strange but it is less problem.
I need Servio for Internet streaming of local files and TV programs form Enigma E2 based sat receiver (live streaming).
I don not use metadata feature support.
And my problem is that filenames with Polish characters are not display at all by Serviio. Not to be display incorrectly. I have no such problem with Twonky.
