When uploading files to my "Freebox" (french linux based TV/ADSL box), French caracters such as "è" are not properly handled.
The connection is set up to use the correct ISO-8859-1 encoding. It is correct because in this way I can correctly see the names of files already on the server.
If I upload a file from Finder called "test çé.avi" it will appear on the Freebox side like "test c?e?.avi". I have to use the Information window to change it to "test çé.avi", and then it will be OK.
I think that Cyberduck forgets to transform the UTF-8 encoded name in Mac OS's Finder to a ISO-8859-1 encoding while uploading it.

This bug is not a duplicate of ticket #2279 even if quite close.
I precise that other FTP clients do not need to have the encoding set, and will correctly transfer the files with their correct non ASCII names. Far more convenient!

Thanks for your analysis on this. We do make sure that the writer has the correct character encoding set and I must assume this is a server issue. Could you file a bug at Freebox and see what they have to say.

I would like to reopen the bug...
1/ I do not think Freebox will ever take the 'bug' into account
2/ Only Cyberduck gives this trouble. Everything is OK with other FTP clients as Transmit or Fetch

Can you give me access to such a box to debug the issue?
