Unfortunately, that's a UTF8 decoding error that's occurring in the error handling code as tries to tell you what the problem is. So it's not actually saying where the problem is at all.

But one fairly strong candidate for problem is incorrectly encoded UTF8 in the source story. If you can post the URL for the particular story that causes this it would help a lot.

I strongly discourage FFDL users from using this plugin to check for updates on large numbers of stories. That causes a lot of extra network traffic on the fanfic sites and costs them and you (if you have limited Internet).

Instead, I suggest that you go to the sites you read stories from and subscribe (or follow, or alert; whatever the sites call it) the authors or stories you read so that you get an email when there are updates and then update only the stories that have updates. You can update existing books by dragging or copying the story URLs as if they were new.

It would help with my management =)

By default, FFDL adds the tag 'FanFiction' to most of its output books. You can also look at the Publisher field for fanfic site names.

FFDL has a tab in its config dedicated to setting values into custom columns for you. If none of those will work for you, look for the comments with the custom_columns_settings setting in defaults.ini (button at the bottom of personal.ini tab).
