Problem with non-latin file names

[iivanov2]

I get an error when I try to save file with non-latin name (cyrillic in my case).
The video URL is: http://vbox7.com/play:04e102e14a
"C:\Джена - Спри да ми досаждаш, 2015.mp4" "http://vbox7.com/play:04e102e14a"
Traceback (most recent call last):

Post the full output you get when running with --verbose option.

This is the output with -v option:

The file was downloaded successfully when I didn't use -o option.

I'm having the same problems here since I updated. Running git-bisect I get the following history with the provided example command:

The log shows that the commit f5e2efb fixing #5157 was the first one to break unicode parameters. When I checkout the previous version b0872c1 everything works again.

Thanks for the report. This issue will be fixed in the next version of youtube-dl.
