Hello,

> Remove text from source code that should not be translated (like insane x264 complex options).
> Remove strings that are similar to other ones.

Oh yes, now I understand it. Thank you for your explanation, Jean.

> It looks like in the source:

So, this file in the source seems to be corrupted, as assumed by Cristian. This file was probably converted into UTF-8 under Western codepage 
environment instead of Central European. I checked and corrected the file. I assume, that codepage should be UTF-8 and if yes, then you can download 
the corrected file here:
www.mojepreklady.net/uploads/download/extras_package_win32_NSIS_languages_SlovakExtra.zip

Please unzip it and upload to GIT. If it is needed some correction or other codepage, please inform me. If will be this file used in next nightly 
builds of VLC, I can test it - of course.

> Seems related to your DPI. Not sure we can do anything about it.

Thank you for your answer. Yes, this is possible, if you do not see such problem on your computer, then I could have some problem with DPI. Windows 10 
and DPI/font settings are quite horrible, in my opinion. :-)  This was the reason, why I asked to it, at first.

> It appears that at one point in time, when the installer strings were moved to UTF-8, the conversion for that string has been made under Western codepage environment instead of Central European. Thus, the 8-bit codepoint for è should have been in fact č and the 8-bit codepoint for Ï should have been in fact Ď. If my assumption is correct, then that string should be like this:

Exactly.

> The other í and á on the first part of the sentence happens to be on same 8-bit positions in both Western and Central European, so these were correct by coincidence.

Checking and correction done. Thank you for your help by identification of problem. :-)
