Hello,I'm using ffprobe to read various metadata from my video files. One of these fields is called "sdes" and represents a TV-Show description. You will only see this filed if your command contains "-export_all" for example:
"ffprobe -print_format json -export_all true -show_programs -show_streams -show_format -loglevel quiet -hide_banner <path_to_file>"
It seems that ffprobe does not render special characters the right way for that field. If the content of that field contains special chars, these will get rendered wrong. TO give you a better example, please see the following text comparison:
This is the content I save to the file:After stealing the Tesseract during the events of “Avengers: Endgame,” an alternate version of Loki is brought to the mysterious Time Variance Authority, a bureaucratic organization that exists outside of time and space and monitors the timeline. They give Loki a choice: face being erased from existence due to being a “time variant” or help fix the timeline and stop a greater threat.
@!"§$%&/() This is what the ffprobe command from above outputs:After stealing the Tesseract during the events of ÔÇ£Avengers: Endgame,ÔÇØ an alternate version of Loki is brought to the mysterious Time Variance Authority, a bureaucratic organization that exists outside of time and space and monitors the timeline. They give Loki a choice: face being erased from existence due to being a ÔÇ£time variantÔÇØ or help fix the timeline and stop a greater threat. \r\n@!\"┬º$%&/()
Where does this issue come from? To me, it seems like an encoding issue. Can somebody help?
-- Kind regards and thanks in advance, Robin Linden
