invalid continuation byte #63

Open Thierry-Dumont opened 2 years ago

Thierry-Dumont commented 2 years ago

With a .ged file exported from geneanet, I get an encoding problem error:

21 input = input[3:] 22 prefix = 3 ---> 23 (output, consumed) = codecs.utf_8_decode(input, errors, True) 24 return (output, consumed+prefix) 25

UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 20: invalid continuation byte
