Charset in closed captions

Hello all,

I am running tvheadend version 7.0.101 under Kodi 16.1 in LibreElec 7.0.3.

I can display closed captioning subtitles allright for English content. However, when I tune in French-language stations, the French-specific characters (e.g. accented vowels) are just getting lost, which makes the subtitles much harder to read.

Under settings>video>Subtitles>Font_to_use_for_text_subtitles, I tried to change the value of “Character set” from “Default” to “Western Europe (ISO)” or “Westernbut that did not help: the French characters are till missing from the displayed subtitles.

Any suggestion on how to fix that problem?

Pierre
