Avoid double conversion from utf16/ucs2 to utf8 for text subtitles. There is code that auto-detects utf16 encoding of the subtitle stream and forces the reading functions to convert it to native utf8. The bug happens when using enca to (correctly) guess that the input file has ucs2 encoding and tries to convert the input stream to utf8, again. In my case iconv did not accept the input and discarded the subtitles completely.

#!/bin/sh
# Create the messages header file from the master source file or a translation.
# Missing messages are filled in from the master message file and, if
# requested, character set conversion is performed.

if test -z $2 ; then
    echo "Error: missing parameters"
    echo "Usage: $0 <messages file> <character set>"
    exit 1
