BibDesk tries various encodings for external file groups, though not the one from your preferences. It tries UTF-8 before Windows Latin 1, so if it's UTF-8 it should use that. If it doesn't, there should be some characters that are not UTF-8, or the download messes thing up.
It's probably using ASCII, actually, unless the patch I posted to http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg03064.htmlwas applied to the trunk. I think I tested it with a number of cases, but James never posted back saying whether it worked, and I forgot about it. In my repo, it looks like I added that code, then changed the calls to it to pass 0 instead of NSASCIIStringEncoding.

In Bibdesk (version 1.3.18), I used the "external file group" feature to "subcribe" to a URL (http://www.bibsonomy.org/bib/group/inain). This is a generated bibtex-file from a (collaborative) bibliography database. My browser reports it to be UTF-encoded. Saving it and manually importing it into Bibdesk (which is set to open/export using UTF8 encoding) works fine.However, the entries of the external file group's items appear to havea wrong encoding. It looks as if Bibdesk would take the data to be encoded as Windows Latin 1. Weird.
