Hi

There have been very few submitted updates to the languages files since the move of the code to github.

Here is an update on "how to" contribute to the translation of the languages files intended for non software developers.

You need the MPLanguageTool

https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-1/blob/master/Tools/MPLanguageTool/bin/Release/MPLanguageTool.exe

You need the master (english) language file (strings_en.xml) for MP

https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-1/blob/master/mediaportal/MediaPortal.Base/language/strings_en.xml

You need the master (english) language  file (MediaPortal.DeployTool.resx) for the DeployTool

https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-1/blob/master/Tools/MediaPortal.DeployTool/MediaPortal.DeployTool.resx

And you need the files for your language

For MP they are here

https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-1/blob/master/mediaportal/MediaPortal.Base/language

Your file is called strings_xx.xml

Where xx is the language code

and the deploy files are here

https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-1/tree/master/Tools/MediaPortal.DeployTool

Your file is called MediaPortal.DeployTool.xx-XX.resx

Where xx is the language code and XX is the country code

To download files

double click with the left mouse button on the file you want to download

and then use the right mouse button on the "Raw button" similar to the image below.

Select Save As...

Change the file extension from txt to resx

You find the language codes below.
