Bug Description

When I try to download any subtitle with Subdownloader I've got this error :

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/subdownloader/gui/main.py", line 1043, in onButtonDownload
    destinationPath = self.getDownloadPath(sub.getVideo(), sub)
  File "/usr/share/subdownloader/gui/main.py", line 1012, in getDownloadPath
    downloadFullPath = os.path.join(folderPath, subFileName).decode('utf8')
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/encodings/utf_8.py", line 16, in decode
    return codecs.utf_8_decode(input, errors, True)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe9' in position 14: ordinal not in range(128)

I looked for any parameters which could change the encoding but I didn't fin anything.
I do not have any problem to send subtitles.

My OS is Ubuntu Nattu Narwhal 64 bits.

not exactly the same, but:

version 2.0.14 on a file with non-ascii chars in its name.

The error message in the bug description is also very similar to that quoted in Bug #306589, only source file line numbers differ a a little bit.

The workaround described in Bug #306589 Comment #12 has solved this exact bug for me.
