So after hours of try and error, I just don't have any idea what I can do to fix this.
So I've got a folder with the Name "Black★Rock Shooter (OVA)".
2013-03-26 22:41:14,118 (1504) : INFO (agentkit:914) - Searching for matches for {'show': 'Black\xe2\x98\x85rock Shooter Ova', 'id': '191', 'year': None}
does the Log tell me but by using media.show I'll get "Black★rock Shooter Ova" because media.show seems to be latin-1. this wouldn't be a problem because the API where I get the data from respond with "Black★Rock Shooter (OVA)". But then I get an exception
2013-03-26 22:45:45,384 (1898) : CRITICAL (core:561) - Exception serializing TV_Show with guid 'de.daraku.plex.myanimelistagent://7059:Black★Rock Shooter (OVA)?lang=en' (most recent call last):

I searched for a solution for hours. I tried to encode with Latin-1 the title and decode it with utf-8 but then I get the message that \u2605 is not recognised. While trying to find a solution I found a map with this "code" on this website but I don't know how I should use it.
I just had an idea: When a suitable media is found the id is "transported" to the update method. because the API I use doesn't support a search for the ID of the media I needed to get the name into the update method so I just append it to the ID. I don't know if this causes the exception.
Nonetheless I need to find a way to get the encoding right.
Any suggestions?
