This applied cleanly on vdr 1.4.5, and unlike the previous version, this one works with the freetype libs in Debian unstable. Do you have a script for translating the /video directory from latin1 to utf8? I attach my script for this, also available from http://www.iki.fi/~msmakela/software/misc/. Am I right that the info.vdr files need to be translated as well? The attached script recodes the contents of all files named 00INDEX. I guess that you could replace 00INDEX with info.vdr in the script and be all set. I'll test that as soon as I can. One small suggestion: could you check for the availability of the fonts at startup? I initially only copied arialbd.ttf and arial.ttf, and got a crash later when courbd.ttf was not available.
