Hebrew display correct in MP3 play list

[AdiLev]

Hi I am the manager of the Active HTPC/PVR site at hometheater.co.il, the most and only serious site for HTPC and Hometheater technologies at Israel.
Following my recommondation on GB-PVR some users started to use GB PVR with Hebrew with rather success results.

However there are some gliches, one of them is MP3 display. If there Hebrew caption in the song itself, then the display is gibrish not hebrew, however if no data is in the song itself then the hebrew is displayed correctly. In order to solve this either consult the locale to decide that is should use Hebrew encoding font and coding.

Send me a private message and I will send you both a hebrew song and hebrew font so you can test it.

P.s. Why you dont support MP3 play as OCX/ACTIVX with other players graphical view, like MS media player with visual effects or WinAmp media player which other software (MediaPortal for example) usage. Visual effects is something that is missing in this version.

Email a sample MP3 to me at support@devnz.com and I'll take a look. I suspect Hebrew is just not compatible with the tag library component I used.

Because I support specialist devices like the XCard, PVR350 and MVP, which would not be compatible with these.

Regarding visual effects, it was only about MP3 music and not video capture cards - dont see any problem as these are simply music files on disk. The exception may be on PVR-350 which has Video out, but I believe this also supported by the XP op. system.

But you can't send the swirling graphics to the MVP. I also never understood the appeal, but obviously lots of popel must like them since so many PC music players have them.
