[mythtv-users] MythArchive in 0.27: title of iso image is bad

I've just been trying out MythArchive in Richard Shaw's latest build, 
which includes a batch of very recent patches by PaulH.  Many thanks to 
both.  The prettyxml is a great improvement for diagnostics, and I see 
an animated thumbnail fix has just gone in.

A new bug has crept in with the iso title.  I don't really make use of 
that, but it's now appearing (when played with vlc) as a line of 
underscores. Here's the command being used, from the progress log of my 
(patched) version of mythburn.py.  The unpatched script has the same 
problem.

00:00:15 Command is ionice -c3 "mkisofs" -dvd-video  -V "
_______" -o "/mnt/f10store/myth/arctmp/isos/mythburn.iso" 
"/home/John/arctmp/work/dvd"

I thought that this might be a product of the shift to  utf-8 and this 
snippet:

             # replace all non-ascii-characters
             title.encode('ascii', 'replace').decode('ascii', 'replace')
             title.strip()

but I commented out the 'title.encode' line and still see the same.  I 
can play around a bit more but hints would be welcome.
