Setting Custom Encoding in HA

[matata86]

Hello,I'm currently using the HA Multiscrape tool for a project, and I've run into an issue with encoding. The webpage I need to scrape uses the Windows 1250 encoding. I've checked the HA Multiscrape documentation but couldn't find any explicit mention of setting custom encoding options. Is there a way to configure HA Multiscrape to handle webpages with specific encodings like Windows 1250? If not, what would be the recommended approach to scrape such pages?Thank you in advance for your assistance!

I don't have any experience with this so neither do I have recommended approaches. Does the scrape integration which is part of core home assistant support different encodings?
And what is exactly going wrong when scraping a page in the different encoding?

Yes, the default scrape integration supports encoding settings.

If I don't set the encoding, special characters like "scratch" are displayed as question marks.
