I hope that this is in the right area (This place is huge)
I have been using MEncoder to transcode on the fly, non-MPG files into MPG to be used with GB-PVR and the MediaMVP.
Everything works well except I can't pass non english characters to MEncoder.
My program writes a batch file, that passes a source file name that might include let's say a Swedish character like : ö
The batch file is written correctly, the command line calls MEncoder , but in the console output, it claims it cannot find the file, and the file it is looking for is the wrong thing altogether...
Commandline in Batch:
"C:\Program Files\mplayer\mencoder.exe" -delay 0.55 -oac lavc -ovc lavc -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd:tsaf -vf scale=476:356,expand=-164:-124:95:62,eq2=1.0:1.0:0.0:1.0:1.0:1.0:1.0:1.00,harddup -srate 44100 -af lavcresample=44100,volume=0.0 -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg2video:vrc_buf_size=1835:vrc_maxrate=2400:vbitrate=2400:keyint=15:acodec=mp3:abitrate=192:aspect=4/3 -fps 25 -ofps 30 -o "D:\My Documents\My Videos\sökarna.mpg" "D:\My Documents\My Videos\sökarna.wmv" > "C:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\Third Party\ZTools\transcode.log"

Failed to open D:\My Documents\My Videos\s¸karna.wmv.
Cannot open file/device.
If my program skips creating the batch file and calls MEncoder directly, it seems to work.
Any ideas why the character sets are getting messed up?
Thanks in Advance
