Hi All,

I use an API and the adequate URL to get words pronounced by voicerss.org/.
From my Windows Opus app, I use 'Play Sound' with the URL to get the audio of my words. It works.
For English words, no problem. But for German words with letters like ü or ö it creates confusion. The same URL manually written to voicerss.org works fine.
I guess the 'Play Sound' doesn't interpret correctly those special letters like ü or ö when it reads a URL.
I would then like to encode that URL in UTF-8 before I get 'Play Sound' to read it.
I know there is a encoreURI(uri) javascript function working for web sites, but I don't know to do the same in a Windows app.

Can somebody teach me? I am not a specialist with scripting / javascript.

Thanks in advance!
