Bugzilla – Bug 1632
Foreign language problem
Last modified: 2008-12-15 12:13:55 UTC
My default language is Danish. After installing the SqueezeNetwork firmware, the language on the display is sometimes English and sometimes Danish. However, when I sign off from SqueezeNetwork, the language is Danish as it should be.
This is not a bug per se, but simply lack of translation for the stuff used in the SqueezeNetwork. Give Dan a mail (translate@slimdevices.com) if you want to help out. It's not a lot to translate for the Squeeznetwork (did the german part in a few minutes). BTW: if you come across english texts in the slimserver - download my stringeditor plugin from http://www.herger.net/slim/ and do the translation yourself ;-). That's how I started my commitment to the slimserver community started some time ago...
Created attachment 534 [details] Strings used in Squeezenetwork I hope Dan does not mind... Just in case you wanted to start your translation work: here's the strings file used in the squeezenetwork as Dan sent them to me. Feel free to download them, add your translations and send them back to translate@slimdevices.com. Please note: the format for strings is always: {tab}NO{tab}your translation ...while "NO" represents the code for norwegian, I guess.
Let's disable the languages that we don't have 90% translations for.
I'd also like to see if we can get the strings.txt file for SN up on the web-based strings editor. what do you think, michael?
About disabling: are you talking about SQN only or slimserver? Just be sure to keep a copy in case somebody wants to continue the work... I'd hate to have to start all over again. The stringeditor plugin is directly working on the strings in Slim::Utils::Strings and writing any change to . slismerver-strings.txt. It does not read/write the server's own strings.txt. Now I don't know what you want it to do: - integrate in SQN's web interface (don't think so)? - have it work with SQN's strings (hardly possible without integrating them in the slimserver's strings.txt)?
Re: disabling - I mean on SN, if we don't have a reasonably full translation, let's just disable that language until we have one. The SlimServer behavior is fine. Re: editor - I'd like to set up the old web-based (not SlimServer based) strings editor for the SN strings so we can let folks help with the localizations. (The built-in webserver is disabled for SN).
I think the translator tool would need some work: quite a bit of its current code is handling getting the latest strings file from the download section. This includes parsing web pages and stuff. Could we define some simple url where it can get the latest file from? Or would you agree to include it somewhere, somehow on your server? You then might want to "harden" it a little :-).
Dan: Can you make the current SN strings file available from that server? Then Michael can grab it from there. Alternatively, Michael, we can host your CGI... Talk amongst yourselves...

Marking fixed as we now have SN fully translated.
