Chinese Title support

cokeseven · 2005-08-13, 04:19

This is my first time installed Media Portal. I find it is a user friendly, powerful os to control my HTPC. But it seen can not support Chinese at all. Is it any plug-in to add?

Thanks in advance.

I am afraid support of chinese is not supported yet.

Problem is, that mp makes graphics of every letter (sign) and the qualitiy decreases with the number of signs to keep.
So, i believe, chinese will be extremely hard.

You can do a search on the forums on "unicode" and "hebrew" to get more details about the problems. You can find a (partly) successfulll way to display song names etc. in hebrew, also some better descriptions of the problem by the dev team.

I hope this problem gets solved one day.

Thanks your reply.

I'm not a programmer so I can't add the string by risk.

Heard that the chinese version MCE will release at late September. Hope MP will add unicode in near future.
