Summary0006384: Can't play files with non-western characters in path thru Winamp
DescriptionIf I choose Winamp instead of the internal MM player in Options->Player, Winamp just receives "?" for every non-western (Japanese in my case) character in the filename or path, so Winamp can't find the file, nothing is played. The same files play fine with the internal MM player, and also in Winamp when I just click on them from Windows Explorer.

But MM can't send these files to Winamp because the non-western characters are lost in the process.

It looks like the problem happens because MM writes the files to be sent to Winamp in the playlist "C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\MediaMonkey\playit.m3u", and that file is in plain ASCII, not Unicode, even if Options -> Tags & Playlists -> "Use Unicode (UTF-8 encoding) for M3U playlists" is checked.
