Hello.
Since this SVN :
https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/mediaportal_svn_snapshot_11_18_2007_00-t31360.html
Hebrew is displayed from Left to Right instead of Right to left. This problems occurs with all SVN's since the SVN linked above.
For example (in English, this of course happens only with Hebrew) instead of "Hello", "olleH" is displayed.
Up to the above SVN there was an option in the configuration (under General->Skin) to fix this problem. This option does not exists anymore.
If I go back to the stable version (0.2.3.0) the problem is gone.
I'm using the Xface skin but the problem exists also with Blue two and Replicant skins.
As you can see here:
https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/right_left-t33039.html?t=33039&highlight=RTV+regional
there are more users with this problem.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks,
Erez

There is a patch for this problem:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1842307&group_id=107397&atid=647927
The problem is, language direction is now detected from system language, which is English on most Hebrew Windows.

Hi,
Thanks for the link. I wasn't aware of the patch.
But the problem is that I don't want to recompile every SVN that I plan to install with the patch.
Is there a way to detect language direction from Regional Settings and not system language?
Most of the users I know have English windows with Hebrew regional settings.

Thanks,
Erez

Hi Erez,

Is there a way to detect language direction from Regional Settings and not system language?

You mean without any patches? No as far as I know.

 

[Erez]

I mean patch the SVN's permanently so they will detect language direction from Regional Settings.

Just stumpled upon this duplicate - can this be closed now?

 

[Erez]

I guess so. I'm still having a few problem with Hebrew (My pictures and My Lyrics) but I haven't had the time to look into it properly in order to report it.
