Public bug reported:

As described in the question by user tigra:
"I have problem with view russian names of files in rhythmbox. Names of files 
and additional information in files is not readable. Cyrillic encoding problem? 
My system is ubuntu 7.04. Files stored on NTFS. "

I think this deserves to be looked at as a bug, since most users will
see it as such without thinking about needing to reencode file names nor
knowing that this is possible or how to do it.

Since Rhythmbox is now again the standard music player for Ubuntu, I
believe it should expand its support for file name character encodings
if possible.

Edit: Seeing as how the related question is put so far down on
Launchpad, I will post the link here too. It describes a work-around,
which is not for non-technical users:
