Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Import preferences Character encoding automatic / UTF-8 ... (Drop down selection) Replace the GEDCOM media path from \PathToFile\ (edit field) filenames to (edit field)

Describe the solution you'd like The import dialog is enhanced, so that the user can select character encoding and replace \PathToFile\, or an other path, with the path on the computer.

Describe alternatives you've considered In GEDCOM you can find the encoding ao the file.

Additional context Some genealogy software creates GEDCOM files that contain media filenames with full paths. To allow Family.Show to find the file, the first part of the path must be removed. For example, if the GEDCOM file contains \PathToFile\photo.jpeg and Family.Show expects to find C:\Users\Joerg\Documents\Family.Show\Images\photo.jpeg in the computer, then you would need to remove \PathToFile.
