missing subtitle sentences

Hi,

I just set up Serviio to stream to a Sony BDP-S390.
I choose to always embed subtitles in transcodin, and it almost works, except that some sentences are completely missing...

Did somebody face this issue?

Thanks Ale

Extra info...
I just noticed that the missing sentences contain characters with accent (Italian subtitles contain chars like ò à è ì ù and so on).
Thanks again
Ale

You need to convert the subtitle file to UTF-8 encoding, or set the encoding of the file in the console (on the Subtitles tab)

Hi,

I changed the charset with Notepad++ and now it works.
Is there a way to check it and convert the file on the fly directly in Serviio?

Thanks a lot

Not really. There is no 100% correct mechanism to detect file encoding, AFAIK, so it'd only work in certain cases anyway.
