XnView MP itself uses umlauts without any problems and the metadata sidecars are also saved correctly. But the preview displays them incorrectly. At least this happens with all files that have a text format. I set everything to ‘UTF-8’ in the settings to be on the safe side, but the programme itself seems to save everything correctly.
The screenshots are from an XMP sidecar and a normal text file.
