This would be very important, indeed, but maybe Klaus sees this different. A patch would be also OK for a while, unfortunately I couldn't patch VDR with UTF-8 support until now (not even that 1.3.24 version, maybe due to other patches). I'd like to contribute to vdradmin in this respect, too (I actually have a littel patch working here, but only for displaying romanian EPG data correctly in vdradmin). I think I'd have to rework this when VDR finally will support UTF-8. > 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. ;-) > You could use snews://snews.gmane.org in your newsreader (I'm using Thunderbird on Windows and Linux) to search, read and post to the VDR ML, it's replicated there really in sync - matter of minutes - and then you might want to turn off email delivery from the ML itself as you could use the newsreader for everything)...
