I am new in the xbmc users group - set up an XBMC media center based on FreeBSD few days ago, and i really like the software, managed to set up everything perfectly, the only problem is that it displays Hungarian subtitles and interface strings incorrectly - instead of special characters like é,á,ű,p,ő,ú i get gibberish, sometimes 2 random chars... i saw that this question came up a few times here and there on the forum, but i couldn't find any solution for it in last 2 days, so i thought maybe someone here can point me to the right direction. I have tried adding new ttf fonts, editing char encoding for gui and subtitiles in language xml files, changing subtitle charset settings in system - video section and even converting the sub file to different character set with iconv ... i'm aout of ideas...

please if anyone has some idea, let me know!

THANKS in advance!
