parentAttempt different character encodings when previewing a URL. (#11077) (diff)
downloadsynapse-efd0074ab76a9449087e38afadcc5a1b4d5a2813.tar.xz
Ensure each charset is attempted only once during media preview. (#11089)
There's no point in trying more than once since it is guaranteed to
continually fail.
