Can you upload a sample file so we can make some tests on our side?

I'm still not sure what is the main issue here, obviously is not in the
filename but in the file encoding. But opening an "iso-8859-1" file
should be a pretty straight-forward operation nowadays... so it could be
some sort of specific bug :-?
Are you seeing the same error when using a different file manager (i.e.,
with Dolphin and/or konqueror)?
