Joost Hoozemans commented on ARROW-16000:
-----------------------------------------
Hi,
I've come across a similar issue when using pyarrow.dataset on non-utf8 data.
Using read_csv works, because a transcoding is performed on the fly using
python codecs. But when using multi-file datasets, doing it that way would mean
everything would have to go through a single python interpreter. And then it
will still not work for other language bindings. Can we add transcoding on the
C++ side?

> don't think this is currently supported.
