Hello,
i have a Problem with Syncing my Webhost at All-inkl.com in Germany.

I am using German Umlauts on the Webserver and it is the Charset #iso8859-1,
Freefilesync uses Utf-8 automatically and i get this Error:

Das Verzeichnis "ftp://w0064af4@ftp.pruns.de/pruns-de/galerie/upload" kann nicht gelesen werden.
Unexpected FTP response. (modify=20220425153743;perm=flcdmpe;type=dir;unique=803U12E1902;UNIX.group=1621;UNIX.groupname=w0064af4;UNIX.mode=0755;UNIX.owner=1819;UNIX.ownername=w0064af4; 2004 02. 16.04.2004 Berlin-Gr�nau) Ungültige Zeichenkodierung: 2004 02. 16.04.2004 Berlin-Gr�nau Erwartet: [UTF-8]

Can somebody help me?

FFS only uses UTF8 if the server advertizes support via the FEAT response. Apparently the server did this, but then returns file names in the wrong encoding. Most likely some other FTP app caused this data corruption by uploading in iso8859-1 format despite the server expecting UTF8.

When I use Filezilla to backup the Ftp Server it is no Problem.
I would like to use Freefilesync because I am syncing all other things with it.
Then I could use only one Program.
Is it not possible to force FFS to use another Charset like Filezilla #iso8859-1?
