Hello, thanks for the reply

It has to be ISO-8859-1, or Latin-1. I don't have any Asian Characters in it.

The second point mention could be true I guess. Think i'll have to do more digging into that. Hope i'll find something this way, although I thought I'm doing it the right way, I might easily be wrong.

I've been using hexdump and calculated to octal, didn't know about od.. you never stop learning.

thanks for your reply, i'll get working on Text::Iconv.

Edit:
Here's a sample output, i quickly hacked in..:

Before Conversion: Live Fußball: Bundesliga, 3. Spieltag
After Conversion: Live Fußball: Bundesliga, 3. Spieltag

dumped it to a file, checked it with od and hexdump, but it looks correct.. still in the dB it appears as in Bevore Conversion.
