It cannot work this way, you blindly recode iso-8859-1 to utf8.
Judging from how xawtv does it each dvb string tells it's encoding.
Therefore the central place to recode all strings must be
decodeText() in libsi/si.c. That also means that the encoding does
not need to be configured via channels.conf.
