Hi,

Did you try Encode ? DBD::Pg itself recomends Encode in its documentation. Encode explains how to encode & decode and set flags with DBD::Pg. Also, Encode support turning on/off the UTF flags in the encoded string. Even if Encode::Guess is there, I think we have more control over encoded string when encoded with Encode. Hope this helps.

Cheers !
