Failed to send .mp4 video file from PC to phone.

Execute mconnectctl share-file /org/mconnect/device/0 /tmp/download/八段锦.mp4

Got this error:

** (mconnectctl:13429): CRITICAL **: 11:35:54.691: file ../src/mconnectctl/main.vala: line 79: unexpected error: Invalid byte sequence in conversion input (g_convert_error, 1)

Change the filename to 7.mp4, and the transfer finished successfully but I can't find the video file in the phone. The last messages of mconnect -d is:

** (mconnect:12259): DEBUG: 11:28:30.475: transfer-upload.vala:115: progress: 38.3 MB/38.3 MB 99% ** (mconnect:12259): DEBUG: 11:28:30.476: transfer-upload.vala:115: progress: 38.3 MB/38.3 MB 100% ** (mconnect:12259): DEBUG: 11:28:30.476: io-job.vala:64: transfer done, got 38.3 MB bytes ** INFO: 11:28:30.476: transfer-upload.vala:127: transfer finished ** (mconnect:12259): DEBUG: 11:28:30.476: transfer-upload.vala:130: transfer done, got 38.3 MB ** (mconnect:12259): DEBUG: 11:28:30.486: transfer-proxy.vala:45: unregister transfer at path /org/mconnect/transfer/0

So,

1. Hope mconnectctl can support Unicode filenames with multi-byte characters.
2. Why failed to save video file to phone? Is it a problem of kde-connect app?
