Invalid characters when dealing with Japanese language

Post by GameKyuubi »

So I'm running uTorrent through Wine and it works for just about every download, but some downloads, particularly ones with files with Japanese characters in them, screw things up. uTorrent reports "Error: Invalid Name" in the status of the torrent, and I noticed that the files being downloaded have been replaced with a bunch of question marks where Japanese characters should be. I try it with Ktorrent and it works fine, Japanese characters and everything. Is there a fix for this? Thanks.
