Exiftool and filenames with unicode characters

Hello,

using XnViewMP version 0.53 I have seen, that Exiftool does not display any output of metadata in case of the name of the selected file contains an unicode character in path and/or in filename.

This is a windows specific problem only.
Reading the Exiftool restrictions, it is stated that Exiftool does not support such filenames (on windows).
So please send the windows short-filename to Exiftool in oder to get an output of the requested metadata.
I am sure that this will work.

Best regards
Herb
