Users in Germany should please test this, too, and do an
export VDR_CHARSET_OVERRIDE=ISO-8859-9
before starting VDR.

It seems to me as if we would need a per-channel setting for this ...
This is exactly the solution which seems to be commonly forced at www.cssf.cz.
Sorry, I don't speak Czech, so I can't follow what's going on there.
The solution is to use config file in encoding.conf format (linux enigma boxes). It could be possible to define encoding not for all channels but only for these which encoding is not well recognized and different from default.
With the recent change at least the Czech channels should work properly again. Can you confirm that?
I think not only I will be very happy to have such a solution as I'm watching not only Czech channels, but also from other countries. And for example I'm very disappointed to have at one channel German epg without problem (RTL, EinsPlus) and at other (Q TV SHOP) epg badly encoded.
Instead of working around these problems people should massively complain to their broadcasters.
For version 1.6.0 there's nothing more I can do than using the environment variable. Maybe later I'll introduce a "workaround-provider-stupidity.conf" ;-)
