I don't know if you can use UTF8 in an FXD XML file, but it works with XMLTV
XML files. I use the following function to convert what the server gives me
(windows 1215 charset) to UTF8 in pytvgrab.
def clean_char( self, contents ):
"""
Convert windows-1252 char's to UTF-8 encoding
"""
contents = unicode(contents, 'windows-1252')
contents = contents.encode('utf-8')
return contents
I hope this is usefull.
