Nice work documenting this issue. It's easy to solve because of the proper 
documentation!

Character u'\xe1'="á". The problem is the "á" in "Fun Feat Janelle Monáe - 
We Are Young.mp3"

That is because "á" is a unicode character and when we write logs or send FTP 
commands, IQBox tries to convert the string to ASCII and the conversion fails.
However, we are releasing support for UTF8 (an encoding for unicode) soon and 
this should solve the issue.

Worth noting: Not all FTP servers support unicode! Some would no allow the "á" 
character in any file name at all! So it's hard to know what to do in that 
case. But, most Windows FTP servers do allow unicode, including the free 
FileZilla server.

Another file with a special character is possibly the "Emeli Sandé - Read All 
About It, Pt. III.mp3"

I am working on unicode support and will release it within a week or two.

Unicode support added for servers that support it. Will be release in the next 
build. If the servers do not support UTF8 encoding for unicode, then these 
files will now be ignored.
In the future, we will add an ACE encoding as a workaround for these issues on 
non-UTF8 FTP servers, but that will require more voodoo.
Most modern FTP servers support unicode, but various Linux ones do not.
