           Summary: cddb encoding incorrect for local storage
           Product: kaudiocreator
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: ben meyerhome net
        ReportedBy: zander kde org


Version:           1.13 (using KDE 3.4.91 (beta1, >= 20050910), compiled sources)
Compiler:          Target: x86_64-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.13.2

After downloading the freedb (the 500Mb tarball) and unpacking it in $HOME/.cddb I \
see that the encoding kaudiocreator uses does not match that of the download.

For CDs that have characters above 127 there are always two charactrs missing in the \
disc info kaudiocreator shows; leading me to think that it assumes utf8 locally.

Example:
I see Bj?k  Which should be Björk (note the missing r in the first).

I suggest to check for validity of utf8 and if there are illegal utf8 chars fall back \
to the encoding freedb uses (sorry not sure what that is).
