.M3U8 playlists without BOM are not recognized as UTF-8

Post by CarlitoGil »

When importing .M3U8 playlists formated as UTF-8 without BOM the Unicode characters are not recognized as such.

And why does MM require BOM for any UTF-8 playlist?
"The Unicode Standard permits the BOM in UTF-8, but does not require nor recommend its use."
