Hi,

from time to time i'm getting an error when trying to play videos. (Message see below). Tried to fix it myself but was not able to But i'm pretty sure i found the problem: YouTube.py (and probably many more) can't handle non-ascii characters in titles, like here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvtxiMEqnFU

It is containing a german umlaut (ä,ö,ü).

I hope this is easy to fix ?
