PS C:\temp> .\ExportVideoChannelsInfoToCSV.ps1

Hi,

Here i attached modified script,  it will solve your issue.

Hi Anna-Maria,

 

You have a problem with encoding where a few dashes (-) are replaced with the text –. This usually happens when copying and pasting text between different programs.

Try using the following code to "fix" the script (UTF8 and default might need other values but I assume these are the ones needed):

 

$InPath = 'C:\temp\ExportVideoChannelsInfoToCSV.ps1'
$OutPath = 'C:\temp\ExportVideoChannelsInfoToCSV_newencoding.ps1'
Get-Content -Path $InPath -Encoding UTF8 | Out-File -FilePath $OutPath -Encoding default

 

Or you can use a text editor (like Visual Studio Code) to reopen the file with different encodings until it looks allright.

Thank you so much for helping me out!

 

I really appreciate it

 

Thank you so much for explaining what was wrong. It was killing me not knowing.
