>Summary: UTF-8 problem when TV.xml contains 8-bit chars (patch)

Initial Comment:
I am now also seeing UTF-8 decode errors when using the web interface to search for programs to add and it happens that any of the matching programs contain TV.xml program data with 8-bit characters.

I notice that the TV.xml file is encoded as ISO-8859-1.  It seems, however, that www/web_types.py is expecting UTF-8 data:
