This is a bug in the pronto handling of text between UCF-8 and UCF-16. The pronto team is aware of it as I documented the exact case you are stumbling over and sent them the xcf. They acknowledged the problem but have set no resolution date.

I find it ironic that the Philips company, a strong EU company, has it correct for us English speaking Americans (we use UCF-8, in fact we use ASCII and a few characters in the 128-255 range such as the copyright mark and the registered mark) which you will come across in DVD overviews and writeups. Also there is an apostrophe that often shows up above char code 127.

I just do an extra scan looking for chars above 127 since a string array element is always in UCF-8 (ASCII) and do some changes (at lest the apostrophe!) which appears in some DVD titles.
