I do not know if this has been discussed before.

I am a new "Cast/Crew 2 Edit" user and I've stumbled across the following issue:

I've been  using the plug-in in order to copy-paste cast-crew information mainly of Foreign movies that I've entered manually in DVD-Profiler.
Most of them are Turkish.
I noticed that the head-shots file names are saved in Unicode characters (in other way exactly as the appear in IMDB).
Unfortunately transferring "cast-crew" indo through copy-paste into the DVD profliler , converts non-ASCII characters into ASCII.
ie: Director's "Yilmaz Güney"  head-shot is saved as "Yilmaz Güney.jpg" but the Directors name in DVD profliler is saved as "Yilmaz Guney" .
When I backup DVD profiler Database it fails with error : Cannot find Yilmaz Guney.jpg.
When I rename the jpg from "Yilmaz Güney.jpg" to "Yilmaz Guney.jpg" , I have no error.

I know that DVD profiler does not support Unicode Characters.
Actually IMO it is the only drawback of the program .

So would it be possible for the plugin to save all head-shot files in ASCII characters ?

Thanks
