Bug#416549: kscd: fails to show utf-8 encoded track information (international characters)

["H. S." <hs.samix@gmail.com>]

Package: kscd
Version: 4:3.5.5-2
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***
Hello,

If I play a CD which has CD-Text in UTF-8 format, the utf-8 encoded information is shown as question marks in the Kscd
track information.

However, if I output that cd's track information using cdda2wav with "-J" option, then the information is shown properly
in Konsole output, proving the data in the audio cd is okay.

I made a CD (output from a mixer was recorded in wav format) and put some international characters in the title of the
tracks using easytag. That particular information (titles) is shown with question makes in kscd, but the rest of the
information (artist, album, etc.) was put in English and is displayed properly in kscd.

Hopefully, this is just a little problem and easily solved.

Thanks,
->HS
