Bugzilla – Bug 2702
Song titles are displayed incorrectly for WAV filenames containing Cyrillics
Last modified: 2008-09-15 14:39:24 UTC
I have a number of WAV files that have Cyrillic letters in the filenames. These are displayed in an incorrect encoding in SlimServer's Artist/Album browsers. It appears that the text is encoded in cp1251, and is subsequently displayed as if it was in cp1252. The files themselves appear to be fine - the names are displayed correctly in any other application I have tried. I attach two files that show the correct encoding and how it gets displayed in SlimServer.
Created attachment 1077 [details] This is how it should look

look in server settings, what does the version string say at the bottom? If it says cp1252, then you need to change your windows regional settings. Otherwise, this may a dupe of bug2419, or the Guesstags functions need unicode conversion.
Code page is displayed as cp1252: SlimServer Version: 6.2.1 - 5194 - Windows XP - EN - cp1252 I did try to change this by tweaking "Language for non-Unicode programs" in Windows XP's control panel. However, no matter what I did, SlimServer code page did not change from cp1252. I would appreciate detailed instructions on how to change SlimServer's code page (I presume to cp1251?)
Can you please upload one of the WAV files in question to: ftp://electricrain.com/incoming/
This should be fixed now. SlimServer doesn't have a code page of it's own - it reads the system code page. Please try the latest 6.2.2 nightly, and reopen if this is still an issue.
