** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: vlc
  
  1) Ubuntu 9.04
  2) vlc 0.9.9a-2ubuntu1
  
- This is what happened: i opened the .avi file with the same name as .ass file, and subtitles loaded in wrong encoding, they where like "Ïîêà íåëüçÿ ïåðåâîðà÷èâàòü, ÿñíî?" and should be like "Пока нельзя переворачивать, ясно?", "Default encoding" option was properly set to cp1251.

            After what i did:
   
  iconv -f cp1251 -t utf8 xxx.ass > yyy.ass
  vlc yyy.avi
  
  and it loaded properly, even thought i didn't change "default encodig"
  option.  This suggests what in this case it just sets the utf8 encoding
  no matter what.
