    I tried to contact the Nero support (and the support of other CD burning
    software vendors) for the same problem in vain.

    When PC magazines here review or compare CD burning programs, they
    never lose a word about the missing ability to handle filenames
    correctly which contain non-win1252 characters. This is even true for
    the more renowned magazines like "c't" (who will receive a forwarding of
    this message).

    It seems that using the correct diacritics for other languages than
    French is simply "uncool" here (in Germany).
