OK, I've narrowed the problem a bit:
There seems to be some kind of "double conversion". Special characters
in the database consist of four bytes.
As if the input routine would be like:
INSERT INTO program [...] latin1_to_utf8(latin1_to_utf8($latin1_string))

Any idea what could cause this problem?

P.S. I'm using xmltv-0.5.31 the generated xml file is correctly
ISO-8859-1 coded.
