           Summary: subparse doesn't correctly handle 8859-15 encoded .srt-
                    Files
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.10.20
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-base

Please describe the problem:
when parsing subtitles from an .SRT file that has latin-1 or 8859-15 encoding
(german umlaute characters), only lines that have no non-ascii symbols are sent
down the pipeline when no character encoding is specified. when setting
subtitle-encoding or the GST_SUBTITLE_ENCODING to "ISO-8859-15", then the
pipeline stops after the first occurance of a symbol.
the same subtitle file works as expected after recoding it to utf-8

Steps to reproduce:
1. gst-launch-0.10 filesrc location=subs.srt ! subparse ! fakesink dump=true
2. gst-launch-0.10 filesrc location=subs.srt ! subparse
subtitle-encoding="ISO-8859-1" ! fakesink dump=true
3. export GST_SUBTITLE_ENCODING="ISO-8859-15"
4. gst-launch-0.10 filesrc location=subs.srt ! subparse ! fakesink dump=true


Actual results:
1: skips lines containing non-ascii chars
2: pipeline stops after the second string
4: same as above


Expected results:
emit correctly encoded utf-8 strings when specifying the correct input encoding

Does this happen every time?
yes

log and srt-file to be uploaded
