 mythfrontend [8904] (almost latest). Found that when I have show where
 title has international characters in UTF-8 like '''Pealtnägija.''' then
 when I enter query '''title = 'Pealtnägija.' ''' I don't get any result.
 I think this is not a case for title but any MySQL query in mythtv.

 Here is result from mysql command line:

 {{{
 mysql> SELECT starttime,title FROM `program` where title = 'Pealtnägija.'
 and chanid = 1001;
 +---------------------+---------------+
 | starttime           | title         |
 +---------------------+---------------+
 | 2006-02-11 11:00:00 | Pealtnägija. |
 | 2006-02-08 20:05:00 | Pealtnägija. |
 +---------------------+---------------+
 }}}

 Here is what mythfrontend does (-v database):

 }}}

 First '''ä''' in '''sending IMEnd with 1 chars to 0x8271d88, text=ä'''
 is UTF-8 character (t   e   x   t   = 303 244  \n)

 Next one is something very strange. '''title = 'Pealtn�ija.' ''' isn't
 UTF-8 nor Latin (P   e   a   l   t   n 357 277 275   i   j   a).

 The query itself as it is reported uses right UTF-8 character again:
 '''...( title = 'Pealtnägija.' )...''' . But still fails.

 In environment I have '''LANG=en_US.UTF-8'''

 Anything I can do to use international characters or does MythTV need some
 more encancement for that?
