External data source simply need to provide the strings in the encoding used on your local system (presumably UTF-8).

This is what I did in my xmltv grab process:

iconv --silent --from-code=ISO-8859-2 --to-code=UTF-8 --output=/opt/tigervdr/xmltv/hu-utf.xml /opt/tigervdr/xmltv/all.xml

And this provides vdr the correct encoding for epg.

Looks like you might be using www.port.hu / www.port.ro as your data source. I used to use the romanian version some time ago, now I would like to set the whole thing up again. If you're really using that, could you please provide some relevant config snippets, scripts and requirements?
