I'm currenty on TP 0.983 and SMF 1.1.4. I have small RSS-field at frontpage and is looks like

Trackers menettää Saarenkannan kakkoseen

and it should be like

Trackers menettää Saarenkannan kakkoseen

Other sections on the site scandinavian letters works fine. Problem only is at RSS box.

Nothing much we can do to help you. The feed is just fetched through TP, if the text renders wrongly, you have to contact the site from where you get the feed and ask them to help you.

It's very sad. I have this problem with almost every RSS feed from finnish site. Offcourse couls check couple Swedish for fun. Problem occures also all major new sites like YLE or MTV3.

I think that it has something to do with character encoding, but if it is unsolveable then I might try some external reader like as installed module or addon. Any ideas?

Not really from the top of my head, but i know google holds a lot of rss feed scripts that will give you more options to change.

Have you tried to convert your site to use uft8 ?

The Sweish files are made for both iso and utf8, if you go for utf8 you will have to add the utf8 löanguage strings to your forum/default/language folder.
