Helphul remark for @rel: probably UPC is using ISO6937 encoding. Maybe it would need some manual workaround - I saw that on Linux E2 receivers ISO6937 has to be enforced manually for UPC.

Helphul remark for @rel: probably UPC is using ISO6937 encoding. Maybe you need some Proextender and some manual workaround - I saw that on Linux E2 receivers ISO6937 has to be enforced manually for UPC.

How do you do that, Betatester? Is there anywhere a guide on how to enforce ISO6937 manually?

[Betatester]

In Linux receivers there is file encoding.conf in /usr/share/enigma2/

Sample content:

Code: Select all

#Fallback encoding when in dvb-text no encoding table is given
#Countycode encoding, encoding may be ISO8859-X, ISO6937, UTF8,
# UTF-8,GB18030(GB2312/GBK/CP936), BIG5(CP950),

#Sorry for that.. in DVB Spec this is the default behavior
#when no other encoding is given in dvb-texts..
#but this breaks too much providers yet..
#so our default is ISO8859-1 without two char byte encoding
#So all transponders which needs this must be listed here

#Fallback encoding table
#If string has no encoding id, encoding name has a option 'N' or 'NOID' first split by ':',
# and no space char between the option and the encoding name.This will fix for UTF16
# or UNICODE strings that no encoding id. usage:
#
#TSID ONID NOID:UTF16LE
#TSID ONID N:UTF16LE
#countrycode N:UNICODE

And there are possibilities to set chars encoding manually by:
- country
- TSID+ONID
- general fallback for everything (*)

In DVB Dream I'm not aware of such workaround, but that's not the point This will need to be fixed by @rel, just mentioned that adding support for ISO6937 is probably way to fix this as UPC is known to use this encoding

Thank you for the answer, but I use DVBDream with Windows. So I think, I need to waiting, maybe in the next upgrade they will solve this bug.

[rel]

If you can send me some sample stream for me to check the problem, I'll try to fix it.


How to capture a sample stream
1) Depending on the device you got there, you might first need to enable "Full TS" mode in device options & restart DD
2) start "TSWriter2" (or "Stream Recorder") module (under DD main menu->Modules) on the problematic transponder, record about 100 mb
3) upload file to somewhere (pcloud.com, justcloud.com, dropbox, google drive etc). and send links to me

For now you can try a work around, see if it helps:
Options->Preferences->Localization->EPG Code Page

[lnyari11karamel]

I had send the sample stream dropbox link in e-mail. Thanks for your work.

In the 3.5 version the UPC Direct (NID:1536) the hungarian caracter encodig working fine now. Thank you.
But in this case the DigiTV (NID:1) hungarian caracter encoding is wrong.
For me this is the better case, because I have more channel by UPS than DigiTV.
In the previous version (3.4) it was vice versa.
