Problem with MySQL 8 and charset #11

Closed julmud closed 4 years ago

julmud commented 4 years ago

When doing an update of the database contents on a database running with MySQL 8, the update fails as soon as it encounters some characters outside of the ASCII charset. This seems to be due to the fact that the MySQL 8 server is configured by default for UTF-8, whereas the phpDvdProfiler only knows windows-1252.
