Comment(by yianniv):

 I started debugging the av_open_input_file function. My attempt is crude,
 but I came up with this:

 The av_open_input_file function called in avfdecoder.cpp file is declared
 in mythtv/libs/libavformat/utils.c (please correct me if my assumption is
 wrong!)

 The variable 'filename' in avfdecoder.cpp is in Greek
 ("/home/mythtv/Laika/01-Κάνε κάτι να χάσω το τραίνο.mp3"). So far so good.
 But if I printf the variable in utils.c, "/home/mythtv/Laika/01-???? ????
 ?? ???? ?? ??????.mp3" comes out.

 The exact code in utils.c that returns the error is:
     if (!fmt || !(fmt->flags & AVFMT_NOFILE)) {
         /* if no file needed do not try to open one */
         if ((err=url_fopen(&pb, filename, URL_RDONLY)) < 0) {
             goto fail;
         }

 The followind is the output from the mythfrontend shell. It includes some
 debugging messages I added, showing variable names + values. The lines
 starting with dates are the normal VERBOSE messages in avfdecoder.cpp.

 I will keep debugging.....
