Unicode to latin-1 error on SBS

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Trying to access the "newest episodes" section

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected newest episodes, got an error instead.

What version of the plugin and XBMC are you using? On what operating system
and where?
0.1.1 on Ubuntu 10.10 and Windows 7 64-bit

Please provide any additional information below, and attach your XBMC log
if applicable.
I read through the log and found it was encode character u'\u2019' that only 
seems to show up in the title and description areas.
I have apparently fixed the problem by changing:
encode('iso-8859-1'))
to
encode('iso-8859-1', "replace"))
in the file "playlist.py"

This is related to issue 4.

i fixed the Unicode to latin-1 problem with windows 7 XBMC and SBS player 
addon.py error by editing a file in 
C:\Users\useraccount\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\plugin.video.catchuptv.au.sbs\r
esources\lib\playlist.py 

and replacing on line 50,51 " encode('iso-8859-1')), " with " 
encode('cp1252')), "
