Hi,

we have got the point. You use Flash format which is quite limited in terms of source encoding at the moment. Still there are some more formats you may choose from - js-html, rss, atom. They should work properly with UTF-8.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hello,

we do not see any problems on our side (we check it on Firefox, just in case). It might take time to apply UTF-8 in settings.

Could you please check the digest once more and let us know if any strange characters are still there?

Hi,
I am using some french sources, and I get stange characters in the RSS feeds (ONID5GS5XX).
I have specified UTF-8 and French in the settings but it did not help.
Thank you for your support.
