#410: imdb results are in ascii mode
-----------------------------------------------+----------------------------
Reporter: Oscar Curero <oscar at naiandei.net> | Owner: ijr
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone: 0.19
Component: mythvideo | Version:
Severity: medium | -----------------------------------------------+----------------------------
Mythvideo only support ascii characters from the results of the search
scripts (actually, imdb.pl and allocine.pl). This is bad because there are
a lot of languages that need extended characters like accents (àá),
umlauts (ü), enye (ñ)...
The solution is to expect data to be '''only''' in utf-8. This conversion
should be done in the search scripts, although the mythvideo code should
also change to get data with the correct encoding. One thing to note is
that all fields are wrong except the movierating. This is the only field
where non-ascii characters looks good.
Attached is a screenshot of the problem.
