Econding characters problem with Script

[orl_fur]

Hello, I am using latest AMC on ubuntu with wine, I have done this for years but on this recent install I can't understand why when importing films from any database non English characters are not reported correctly. Ubuntu is on UTF-8.
All characters already present in in my AMC database are well and good it is just when importing new films.

Hi,
For which script is it? Any script?
AMC is not compatible with Unicode, so scripts either rely on UTF8Decode fonction to convert pages that use UTF8, or some custom-made function.

Hello! All scripts are behaving so.

Strange, it is difficult to find what is the cause, since on Windows that issue does not exist, as long as AMC is run as a non-unicode program (default behavior).
There is in Windows an option to enable Unicode in legacy/ANSI applications, which can cause issues, maybe there is some setting that can be disabled for a specific Windows app when it runs in Ubuntu?

In the end I was planning to install Fedora and so after formatting and install Fedora and then Wine to use ANM it now works as usual and I have no enconding problem anymore. Can't really say what is it that is fixed now, but historically it has always worked well in Linux with Wine and I had never encountered this issue anyway.
