Accents in channel name being dropped on autotimer on any channel

[phunkyfish]

I have two autotimers. One bound to a channel and the other to any channel.

If it is bound to a channel the channel name is correctly stored as "RTÉ One" for any resulting timers. However, for the other which can run on any channel there is the channel name will be stored as "RTE One" which is incorrect.

Note that the accents are standard ASCII characters and both autotimers use UTF-8 encoding:

There are no accents in standard ASCII charset.

Sorry, I meant extended. Here is a timer created by both autotimers:

You'll see that one includes the accent (bound to one channel), and the second drops the accent (not bound to any channel):

What image do you have and what exact autotimer source?
I have checked this source -> https://github.com/oe-alliance/enigma2-plugins/tree/master/autotimer

The function to create the timer have no channel name as parameter.
The servicename in autotimer.xml is only for information.

I use OpenVix, latest image.

It uses the same source you referenced above.

Let me test this again with the latest version but I imagine this is an image issue and not OpenWebIf.

I've got RTÉ channels on both satellite and terrestrial bouquets, using OpenATV and OpenWebif so can test later.

autotimer.xml stores channel refs with a comment (unused code) of channel name
<serviceref>1:0:19:835:3EA:2174:EEEE0000:0:0:0:</serviceref> <!-- RTÉ One -->

I haven't checked the code, but I'd imagine the AutoTimers code passes that sref through to the image to deal with.

If you know how to copy files from the box, could you attach autotimer.xml and timers.xml with the relevant parts left in?

Update to the above...

On OpenATV recent version via OpenWebIf I created:

• one timer with no restriction (One O'Clock)
• one timer with channel restriction (Six One)
• one timer with bouquet restriction (Nine O'Clock)

and got the following:

autotimer.xml:

 <timer name="Six One" match="six one" enabled="yes" id="2" location="/media/hdd/movie/" offset="0" overrideAlternatives="1">
  <serviceref>1:0:19:835:3EA:2174:EEEE0000:0:0:0:</serviceref> <!-- RTÉ One -->
 </timer>

 <timer name="Nine O'Clock" match="nine o" enabled="yes" id="3" location="/media/hdd/movie/" offset="0" overrideAlternatives="1">
  <bouquet>1:7:1:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:FROM BOUQUET "userbouquet.favourites.tv" ORDER BY bouquet</bouquet> <!-- Favourites (TV) -->
 </timer>

 <timer name="One O'Clock" match="one o" enabled="yes" id="4" location="/media/hdd/movie/" offset="0" overrideAlternatives="1">
 </timer>

timers.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>

And what is the is the output from the timerlist API call?

e.g. http:///web/timerlist

That looks good compared the timer file gist I posted. Let me redo a test to see if the issue still occurs. If it happens for me still then it must be an OpenVix issue.
