Title: Unicode supported jukebox, touchscreen, and ogg?
Post by: dougman on February 04, 2007, 02:45:59 pm

I was trying out Wincab and I found out that it cannot display any unicode.
Then I tried party time jukebox, and that one cannot even parse folders with unicode.
I also need it to support ogg and the ogg tags, because the LAME mp3 encoder doesn't support unicode filenames so I had to rip my audio cds to ogg (using quintesstial player).

So basically it looks like this:
E:\MP3\李玟 - 萬人迷演唱會精采實錄CD1\08 - 08.我依然是你的情人.ogg

If you have a software that you recommend that can parse that, please tell me. (need touchscreen, unicode, and ogg support).
It is all valid windows naming. All the fonts and stuff show up in winamp just fine.

Are you providing WinCab with a font that includes those Unicode characters?  Internally, it should support Unicode ID3 tags, but the included fonts won't include those characters.

OGG support may be broken in this version of WinCab, I'm looking at that now...

WinCab also doesn't parse folder names that start with unicode characters.
BUT, if it starts with an english character with unicode trailing it, it would parse the dir, but all the songs don't display properly and come up with "???" or gibberish.
The skin i was using was cd4-2. or something. O_O

K, I'll take a look at it.  WinCab is supposed to support Unicode in tags, but the filesystem's a bit trickier.
