Umlaute ö and things like é

Postby Tinitus » 09 Jun 2015, 21:13

Hi,

I got all kinds of music on my HDD. I already removed all é and other letters be they French or Italian because I can't get them displayed properly in the shell. The Umlaute like Ä for instance are not displayed properly either but if I write "Die Ärzte" it works although the folder name is displayed "Die ?rzte". But if I write "Einstürzende Neubauten" it doesn't work.
I also had the problem that in the WebUI a track title was displayed "Die F?rstin" instead of "Die Fürstin". Would running convmv solve the problem? And is there any solution to save all those lovely French and Italian letters?

That would be awfully nice

Hi,

just to be precise that is not a bug due to RuneAudio but a problem due to the fact that I am using Windows 7 in order to download my music. Would the problem be solved if I downloaded music with a Linux? But does Linux work with a nuts HDD?

Hi Frank,

as you will know by now sometimes the ideas I post are only half baked. I understand now that it is sufficient that the file of the individual song is tagged properly in order for it to be displayed correctly. Funny thing is that when browsing the library I have the correct spelling, even when I add the file to the queue it is displayed properly when I choose a song from the queue and play it and go from menu queue to menu play (basically the view you displayed in your screenshots) all the Umlaute are displayed as "?" Will running convmv solve the problem or would it be better to download my music with a Linux system? That should work with a ntfs formatted HDD, too I guess.

Hi Aquarius,

unfortunately in our modern world if you fit the bell curve things are quite easy but if you don't fit the bell curve then things become quite difficult. Using letters which are not part of the English alphabet definitely falls into the second category.

Oh

by the way my music is all *.wav and I know that is hardly understandable when at the same time I am moaning about the price of SSD
