Problem with spumux and accented subtitles

Hello,

When I try to encode a subtitle that has accented words, I got this error in spumux:

DVDAuthor::spumux, version 0.7.0.
Build options: gnugetopt graphicsmagick iconv freetype fribidi fontconfig
Send bug reports to <dvdauthor-users-5NWGOfrQmneRv+LV9MX5uipxlwaOVQ5f@public.gmane.org>

INFO: default video format is NTSC
INFO: Opened iconv descriptor. *UTF-8* <= *UTF-8*
ERR: Error 84 -- Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character -- decoding subtitle file at approx line pos 1 + char pos 152

This position is the first accented letter

is there a way to fix it?

Thanks

My guess is, it’s not. Try using e.g. the iconv command-line tool to
convert it from UTF-8 to something else, like ISO-8859-1, and see if you
get the same error.

Re: Problem with spumux and accented subtitles

Thanks

Is it Western European text? If so, my guess is the most likely
encoding would be ISO-8859-1 or similar.

Although its "Brazilian" Portuguese, the character set is normally
iso-8859-1 here

I suppose I should have said “or _derived_ from a Western European
language”. :)
