screenshot of Kdenlive with caption displayed incorrectly
Some characters do not appear correctly in Kdenlive's "edit subtitle tool"
functionality.
(Sorry if I selected the wrong component. I have no idea which one the subtitle
is a part of)
When importing a subtitle in ISO-8859-15 character encoding, very common in
subtitles, some characters such as ã í á and others are not displayed
correctly. In its place, a question mark appears.
It is not a problem with the subtitle file as in VLC Media Player the subtitle
works normally.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Click on Kdenlive's "edit subtitle tool" button to activate the subtitle
track.
2. Click and drag to the track any subtitle that is encoded in ISO-8859-15 and
contains special characters (A subtitle in Portuguese or Spanish for example).
3. See in the Project Monitor if the characters are displayed correctly or with
question marks as in the attached image
OBSERVED RESULT
Some characters are displayed as �
EXPECTED RESULT
Characters being displayed correctly (ã, ê, é, á...)
