in thread encoding of file names

but i don't know the from encoding

I think you can't do much harm by just trying 'UTF-8' as the from encoding :)

$filename = decode("UTF-8", $filename);

When your file names are in fact in UTF-8, things will likely work out fine. Otherwise, you'll know they aren't UTF-8 encoded, and you can try some other encoding...
