Subject: audacious: bad text encoding from mp3 files

Date: Thu, 26 Mar 2009 16:40:40 +0100

Package: audacious
Version: 1.5.1-4
Severity: normal

i have plenty of mp3 files that have id3 tags with national characters (polish)
in windows-cp1250 encoding (because they was created on windows). here on debian
i have latin-2 encoding so the national characters are displayed badly.

it would be great to have possibility to choose source encoding to convert
from, or better any mechanism to detect text encoding and convert it to system
default.

cheers.

revert this bug please - audacious already has mentioned functionality.

but there is little issue with it.
after changing encoding preferences it does not work immediatelly on  
already loaded playlist. new settings work just when new playlist is  
loaded.

cheers and excuse me this submitting of thing that is already ok,
Mark
