[Backport to 3.0.x] freetype: use UCS-4 encoding on OS/2, too (!500) · Merge requests · VideoLAN / VLC

KO Myung-Hun requested to merge komh/vlc:30x-freetype into 3.0.x Aug 09, 2021

This fixes subtitle texts are not shown correctly on OS/2.

Freetype module expects UCS-4 string. However, OS/2 iconv() does not support UCS-4 encoding, so UCS-2 encoding is used on OS/2. Because of this mis-match, subtitle texts on OS/2 are mis-interpreted. As a result, subtitle texts are not shown correctly.
