Public bug reported:

Normally vlc will try to load subtitle automatically,for example,if you
put example.avi and example.srt in the same directory,and you double
click on example.avi,and example.srt will be loaded.

But vlc will regard the file path as a URL,and encoded it(you can find
some details in RFC 1738).

For example,if you have a file 
/home/yegle/[example].avi
,and you have a correspond subtitle file called [example].srt.You double click 
on [example].avi and you will find /home/yegle/%5Bexample%5D.avi will be 
displayed at the bottom of the vlc window,and [example].srt wasn't loaded.

At first I think this is because vlc cannot deal with non-ascii
characters,but later I find when I drag and drop [example].avi to vlc
window,the subtitle loaded just fine.So this bug will happen when you
double click on a file contains non-ascii characters.

sorry for my poor English.
