[hefferd]

Hi All!

I viewed many pages about the question of win-1251 coding but i can`t fine the right answer?

How can I see Russian Language in Channel Names & EPG?

I have tried latest build of TVE3 with both MySQL and MS SQL engines without any success - still having problems with russian channel names and EPG. Databases encoding are utf8 (converted in MySQL) so database is not a problem. Perhaps the problem is DVB encoding detection - should be ISO 8859-5 for Cyrillic (windows 28595 code page) that is not match to windows locale.
To MP devteam: is any option to include support for manual per-transponder encoding settings?

For preparation of a file xmltv.xml for Mediaportal in settings tvxb it is necessary to expose the coding utf8:

xmlencoding=utf-8
lang=ru


In Tve3 it is solved as follows:

I install TV Server. Then I do by means of mysql-gui-tools backup bases tvlibrary. The given file I open in Notepad, replace all found 'latin1' on 'utf8'.
In mysql-gui-tools I delete base tvlibrary. Then I restore it from the changed archive.

Then in file C: \Documents and Settings \All Users \Application Data \MediaPortal TV Server \Gentle.config I add in the end connectionstring - 'charset=utf8', that the following would turn out:
<DefaultProvider name="MySQL" connectionString="Server=mserver;Database=TvLibrary;User ID=root;Password=xxxxx;charset=utf8" />

After each updating TVServer file Gentle.config needs to be changed. I act as follows - After each updating I copy in folder C: \Documents and Settings \All Users \Application Data \MediaPortal TV Server kept 1 time a file. After that it is necessary rescanning all which channels of the name not in the coding latin1 and if you use xmltv that compulsorily to start updating.
