I've been running a shell script to go line-by-line through a .ram file and download all the rtsp streams included. It works for just about every file except for the ones that have any foreign language accents. When it tries to play those it crashes. Below is a sample of the console output for a stream that causes mplayer to crash and the command-line command that triggered it. As a testing measure, I tried checking out the mplayer code from the svn repository and compiling it, but that didn't fix the problem. I also looked through documentation and FAQs but I could find anything about foreign language accents at all.?Any help would be much appreciated. I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 kernel: 2.6.24-25-generic libc: 2.7 gcc: 4.2.4 ld: 2.18.0.20080103 binutils: 2.18.0.20080103 ~$ mplayer -dumpstream -dumpfile "rep/week9/track2-dump.mp3" -noconsolecontrols "rtsp://128.2.23.13:554/johnston s07/rep and listening week 10 s07/02 Symphony No. 4 in G - ii.

This shouldn't happen. It can be a bug in the MPlayer code _or_ in your drivers _or_ in your gcc version.
