Error while browsing movie list (special characters?)

[git-developer]

I'm using Special Features 3.0.1 on Kodi 17.6 with default db SQlite (not MySQL). In plugin configuration, I have configured Enable Context Menu.

When browsing my movie collection, I receive an error popup from Special Features hinting to the log. Here is the log:

After the error message, the context menu entry for Special Features is missing.

I have some movies with special characters in their title and path which possibly leads to the error:

The issue was solved, thank you.
