Note that not all platforms support all these Encodings, for instance on my Windows XP SP2 box iso-8859-10/-14/-16 are not supported. On NETCF on Windows Mobile 5 only five of the ISO-8859 encodings are supported. Regardless I've seen no SDP records that use ISO-8859 encodings so this is not a problem, most records actually use UTF-8.

Exceptions
ExceptionCondition
NotSupportedException The IETF encoding id for this language base item is currently unknown. If valid, add it to the s_IetfCharsetIdToDotNetEncodingNameTable table, providing a mapping to its Windows code page name.
