Hi all !

I just switched to foobar from Kb media player and so far I'm pretty happy with it, especially when I see how fast it opens files from a usb mp3 player.

The only thing is that I listen to a lot of japanese/chinese/korean tunes and when I open one the title/file name get all screwed up because the caracters are not in the font foobar uses.

Is there any hope to get a unicode version in the future ?

Thanks for reading/replying, and keep up the good work !

Cheers !

I listen to Korean/Japanese songs too without problems. foobar2000 supports Unicode very well on Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 etc. The real problem is that your tags are probably not in Unicode.

If your MP3 files are tagged in your system codepage, you need to retag them in Unicode. (Vorbis files are always tagged in Unicode so this should not be a problem.)

You can use mp3tag or foobar2000 0.8.3 + foo_id3v2 for the job.

You could also try changing the playlist font first.

Heh. I used to use Arial Unicode MS, but now I use Lucida Sans Unicode. Korean characters are more legible that way.
