Bugzilla – Bug 3441
Korean characters do not display via internet radio streams
Last modified: 2008-12-18 11:12:53 UTC
per ticket 4068... Tried playing a Korean radio station and it displays the song info as gibberish on the screen. Tested stations: * http://01.nanpasun.com:10000 * http://62.75.220.137:9072
Dan, if I add this line to Slim::Utils::Unicode, the euc-kr data from this station is properly decoded: Encode::Guess->add_suspects('euc-kr'); In the current code, this seems to only add utf8, instead of all available encodings? if ($] > 5.007 && $locale ne 'utf8') { Encode::Guess->add_suspects($locale); }
The problem is with overlappping char sets.. you could add everything, but even fewer things would be guessed.
Changing the add_suspects line will break regular scanning. And because there is no way to determine the charset of the titles there isn't anything to do. iTunes, Winamp, etc all fail in the same way for the same reason.
Change 10521 should fix this. 7.0 alpha only.
