[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Trying to convert subtitles with characters (accented) possibly changed by
the opensubtitles.

Converting only the lowercase letters is ok

$cat legenda1.srt | tr 'AЯЖЗсржьзнЩКу' 'AÀÊÔãáéíóôúÇç' > teste.srt

With the capital letters of invalid code page
$cat legenda1.srt | tr '├┴┬╔' 'ÃÁÂÉ' > teste2.srt

It seems your message was lost and not answered to in a year.
Sorry about that.

Regarding 'tr': multibyte/utf-8 support is currently lacking,
but is being worked on.

I'll keep this bug open until it is resolved.
