Hello,
I have turned my MP install in french and it seems all words are not always correctly translated from english.
Is there a way to customize this ?
Thanks

    I would also like to add/modify words.
    There was a translation app./website ("fill in the blanks"), but I believe it is no longer used.

    Hi,
    You have to open the language file from "Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\language" folder & edit it in notepad or similar program..

    Spragleknas, For additional/modified words in Norwegian just send those to me & i'll add those..

    Regards
    Roy

    Yes, but the how depends on which version you are running.

    The language files are stored in the language directory

    Pre-0.2.3.0 RC1

    Each language has its own directory and a strings.xml file

    Post-0.2.3.0 RC1

    Each language has its own file in the main directory strings_xx.xml. The xx = the ISO 2 character language code.

    You can open the files in a text editor and change the strings easy as that.
