The data is apparently not UTF-8 so client_encoding needs to be set
to something else.  0x92 is a hint that the encoding might be
Windows-1252 or Windows-1250 since that byte represents the right
single quotation mark in those encodings; that's a common character
in data that originated in Windows.  Also, client_encoding can be set
by the client without having to restart the backend.
