How can I replace the X language specific characters UTF-8 (such as the Latvian language) to Latin characters, but only the file names, but not to replace them in tags?  
How to do it in one go, without having to type:  
Ā \> A ā \> a  
Č \> C č \> c  
Ē \> E ē \> e  
Ģ \> G ģ \> g  
Ī \> I ī \> i, etc.
