If I remember correctly, this was no problem until some time ago (don’t ask me whether I changed something in the character-set-settings on my system – at least I don’t think that I did).
Now any title containing a german Umlaut (äÄöÖüÜß) is skipped. I changed some titles (ä -> ae etc.) and the problem was gone. Still some remaining files are left for documentation here (“St??ck” should read “Stück”):

Path stuff is about to all change on next nightly, so I’ll hang on that until next nightly.
