Can i get proper encoding from text like this? "Español"

Well the encoding in a string is always UTF 16.

.NET uses UTF-16 to encode the text in a string. A char instance represents a 16-bit code unit.

Okay, and can I convert this to the correct character set? It could be "Español"

Btw it came from Xabe.FFmpeg SubtitleStream.Title prop.
