Special characters doesn't show up properly
Every time when I download a subtitle with special characters like ă,ș and ț (Romanian special characters) my system convert the characters in ã,º and þ.
If I try to replace the characters in gedit I receive this error:
Could not save the file using the “Western (ISO-8859-15)” character encoding.
The document contains one or more characters that cannot be encoded using the specified character encoding.
Select a different character encoding from the menu and try again.
Character Encoding Current Locate UTF-8
I don't want to convert every file I'll download, I want to read my text files properly by default.
I solved this problem a few years ago but after a fresh install, I can't remember what I did. I have Ubuntu 18.04.1
18.04 text encoding
