I am trying to figure out how the Artist picture lookup works. From this

This implies that in the plugin's settings if all 3 boxes are ticked and
a folder specified, then if I put an "artist picture.jpg" in the folder
and the "artist picture" is exactly the same as the Artist then this
picture will be used in the browse by artist (and the scan for artist
pictures should be quick as there is no online lookup).

This doesn't always work. One of my problems is accented characters -
for instance for artist Béla Fleck the plugin has stored "Béla
Fleck.jpg" in my designated Artist Pictures folder. For artist Bartók, B
the picture "Bartók, B.jpg" is ignored and Man With Trumpet is
displayed

My system is Win 7/64, local disks . I obviously need some setting for
the (very) occasional accented characters. Help please.
