Oh well... it definitely *is* a conversion problem. And it seems to be promoted by the fact that my locale's character set is Latin-15 (which is similar to Latin-1 but also contains the € sign, among others). At least this explains why "ä" and "ü" are the only characters so far that don't work:
"ä" is e4, "ü" is fc in Latin-1/Latin-15. Translated to UTF-8, that becomes c3 a4 and c3 bc. When you translate that to unicode (UCS-2) one more time, a4 becomes 20ac and bc becomes 0152. Then some stupid peace of code translates the values back to UTF-8 using the wrong (probably Latin-1) codec, and both bytes suddenly become "?", aka 3f - and that's exactly what appears in my project file: c3 3f for both "ä" and "ü". This combination is not a valid UTF-8 encoding, however, so it's replaced with "?" in the final decoding step, and dvbcut tries to open a file named "ÄÖÜ?ö?ß.ts" - which of course doesn't exist.
