Hi! I guess I caught the bug. "settings" is a global variable, and its constructor calls load_settings() - before main() has started and Qt has properly initialized itself (I guess that happens in QApplication somewhere). Unfortunately, the character translation mechanism isn't fully initialized at that time either - in particular, the program thinks it's using the "C" locale (which implies the ASCII character set). Therefore, filenames in the settings file are incorrectly converted at load time if the real locale is based on anything else but ASCII or Latin-1.
Since a global variable is still required for automatic saving (which is done inside the destructor), the fix is to delay load_settings until Qt is fully initialized - or until they're needed. Dvbcut does the latter now.
