[Debburn-devel] Bug: Icedax and special characters

Hi

There seems to be no bug reporting system so I will post this here.

When retrieving information of an audio CD from CDDB (--cddb=0/1 
command) icedax outputs the requested information, however if special 
characters like french accents, german umlauts or scandinavian 
characters are present those are replaced by a "_". I tried several 
encodings with no success. I found no way of displaying the characters. 
The .inf files that are created show the same symptom. No way of getting 
that "_" to be interpreted as the correct character in the text editor. 
I have observed this behaviour on several machines using either Ubuntu 
Feisty Fawn or Mandriva Spring (both icedax 1.1.2 , if it helps). When 
using version of cdda2wav (version 2.01.01a11), there is no such problem 
if using the ISO-8859-1 encoding.

Or did I miss something? I found nothing that could solve the problem.

Regards

Sylvain
