Description
I have noticed what seems to be a small problem with MythFlix?, namely that the Queue file is not read if there are odd characters in the movie title. One such title is Mambo Café (that is Mambo Cafe where the e has an accent mark). On my MBE system which is gentoo with a mythtv build of 0.21_p13344 I get the error "Failed to Retrieve News" in MythFlix?, and "MythNews?: failed to set content from xmlfile" in the debug logs.
By hand editing the Queue file to remove this character from the title field, (and setting the permissions on the Queue file so that it does not get overwritten on the next run, I can make this problem go away by replacing the offending character with a standard "e". I have attached 2 small Queue files that can be used as test cases.
In studying the existing trac tickets, I found this one which might be similar.

This changeset applies to the _description_ field of the movie, not the title field, but it seems to be a similar problelm.
