When trying to sync a folder with non-ASCII characters, getting the following error

[tofagerl]

File "~/seedbox-sync.py", line 68, in <module>
    if(isFileRemembered(file)):
  File "~/seedbox-sync.py", line 51, in isFileRemembered
    cur.execute("select count(*) from rememberedFiles where filename=?",(filename,))
sqlite3.ProgrammingError: You must not use 8-bit bytestrings unless you use a text_factory that can interpret 8-bit bytestrings (like text_factory = str). It is highly recommended that you instead just switch your application to Unicode strings.

Pretty easily avoided by renaming folder and files, but should also be easy to fix.
