Public bug reported:

Affects: gstreamer (upstream)
       Severity: Unknown
       Priority: Unknown
         Status: Unknown
Affects: gst-plugins-base0.10 (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
     Assignee: Ubuntu Desktop Bugs
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
In French and many more languages, chars like é à ç ... are displayed as ??? if 
the srt file is not in UTF-8.
It's very annoying because most of the srt files you download from the web are 
in ISO-8859-15.

This bug was recently fixed in upstream 
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=172848).
I don't know when is planned gst-plugins-base 0.10.6 and if it will be shipped 
with Dapper but if it don't, i think it would be a good idea to backport this 
fix.

Currently, french subtitles are just unusable with Dapper.
