Valentina db on disk always is in UTF16 for now

So your 

    REV WIN APP (Win ISO)   ->  UTF16 db

Valentina have built-in UTF engine, so it self can convert from any encoding
to any.

Please try to use VDatabase_IOEncoding property.
  
Using it you inform engine in which encoding you want SET/GET strings
