What cdtext_get returns is basically what's in the subchannel information from the CD-ROM. So sorry if this point seems is a little bit pedantic, but the question really is about what charset is returned from requesting the CD Text subchannel from a CD-ROM. My guess is that the standard is character-set neutral which means the bytes can be anything you want and you somehow have to know what encoding was used in putting the data in there. Just a guess...
I just researched a bit in the cdrtools sourcecode. There seem to be some language codes as well as character set identifiers in CDtext. Maybe, when I have some time, I'll manage to get a CD with some special German characters in the CDtext to figure out, where the character set is coded. IMHO this info should really be made available by libcdio. -- _____________________________ Dr.-Ing.
