UTF is a code page (actually, more than one: UTF8, UTF16, UTF32). But I am no expert.

Your Windows system is using one code page, and your TV provider is using another code page. If these two code pages are different, MP converts text strings such as channel names and EPG information from one code page to the other.

Sorry, but I don't understand the intricacies of code page handling, or how you can fix your problem. So regrettably I think that you will have to recreate your channel groups by hand.
