---

the convert from array to xmlrpc_encode_request dont convert the hebrew characters as need to 

after convert to xmlrpc_request 
the word שלום looks like this :

$array= [
            ['Server' => 'BM',
                'Method' => test,
                'Params' => ['שלום',hello,12],
            ]
        ];

Keep in note that this function is marked as 'EXPERIMENTAL'. Although I would argue that is not true anymore.

Anyway! Have you tried to set the 'escaping' option in the $output_options parameter of xmlrpc_encode_request()?

To my knowledge, you can't.  Write a wrapper function, or better
stop using the XMLRPC extension[1], if you haven't already.
