Translate errors in "NEWS"

    Hi guys. I just updated my RPI2 from MM1 to the new MM2. Works like a charm!
    But I got one problem. I uses a RSS feed from a swedish newsfeed called “Expressen” and they uses swedish letters like “ÅÄÖ”. This aint a problem overall on the MM2 (Like calenders, weather and so on. There it works) But on the newsfeed i only get “?” symbols.

    I’ve checked and UTC-8 shall work, but I have tried change it anyway to ISO-8859 but no success.
    Anyone that could help me with this problem? Thanks!

    Hey! I got the same issue, i solved it by using this:

    {
	module: 'newsfeed',
	position: 'bottom_center',
	config: {
		feeds: [
			   {
			   title: "Expressen",
			   url: "http://expressen.se/rss/nyheter",
			   encoding: "ISO-8859-1",
			   },
		        ],
			showSourceTitle: true,
			showPublishDate: true,
			showDescription: true,
			reloadInterval: 200000,
			updateInterval: 15000,
			animationSpeed: 3500
                  }
},

    When i was trying with Aftonbladet, DN and my local paper, they all worked without encoding, so there must be something in Expressens feed.

  • Like @Snoevit says: check out the encoding field.
