So at the end of the day, there's no way around a proper charset conversion... is there anything I can do to help?
Alexander Riedel announced UTF-8 Patch 0.0.3 on May 12 in this list.
Mmmm, yes, this patch is against 1.3.24, and applying it to 1.3.27 says,
seneca:/usr/local/src/vdr/VDR # patch -p0 --dry-run < ../vdr-utf8-0.0.3.patch-0001.bin patch unexpectedly ends in middle of line patch: **** Only garbage was found in the patch input.
It seems nobody cares about this functionality when it was against 1.3.24 and we're now working on 1.3.28. Will 1.3.28 be UTF-8 capable? Klaus, please. I understand you get lots of patches solving only minor and local problems but this is about international use of vdr and IMHO important enough.
PS: It would be easier to avoid questions like mine (if you wanted to tell me I should look up the archives) if the list archive were searchable. ;-)
