One thing for a start: I'm Guy, new in here, and a proudly purchasing user of MC17. And this is my first post here  as you can see...

How do I add a different language charset to YouTube search in Theater Mode. My native is Hebrew and willing to access content in that language...

Thanks.

[JimH]

Welcome to the forum.  I'm sorry, but I don't know of a way to do that.  Can you set a language in Youtube?

[guy.yakobovitch]

YouTube holds content on all languages, only that in MC I depend on On-Screen Keyboard (of only 3 languages English, Deutch, Espanol).

Isn't there a way to add Hebrew On-Screen Keyboard with Hebrew Chars to MC's Theater Mode GUI?

[guy.yakobovitch]

Is there any final answer to my question?

[Matt]

If you like to tinker, you can add a custom keyboard by editing C:\Program Files (x86)\J River\Media Center 17\Data\Default Resources\Keyboards.xml.

If you do create a Hebrew keyboard, please share it so that we might include it with the program for other users.

Thanks.

I added Hebrew custom keyboard by editing the mentioned file.
I was able to type properly, and there wasn't any problem with the right-to-left,
but youtube didn't show any result, no matter what I typed.

[Matt]

Could you give me an example search string that works at youtube.com but not in Theater View?

Thanks.

[guy.yakobovitch]

few examples:
אהבה
means: love

טריילר
literally: trailer

ראיון
means: interview

for Hebrew presentation using usually utf-8 or windows-1255

[Matt]

The issue with searching YouTube for Hebrew characters will be fixed next build.

If you make a nice Hebrew keyboard in Keyboards.xml, please share.  I'm sure other users would appreciate it.

Thanks for your help.

[guy.yakobovitch]

Thank you very much!

And for everybody who is willing to use Hebrew Keyboard, add this to your keyboards.xml file (C:\Program Files (x86)\J River\Media Center 17\Data\Default Resources\Keyboards.xml):

Code: [Select]



  <Keyboard Name="Hebrew">
    <Key Display="א" />
    <Key Display="ב" />
    <Key Display="ג" />
    <Key Display="ד" />
    <Key Display="ה" />
    <Key Display="ו" />
    <Key Display="ז" />
    <Key Display="ח" />
    <Key Display="ט" />
    <Key Display="י" />
    <Key Display="כ" />
<Key Display="ך" />
    <Key Display="ל" />
<Key Display="מ" />
<Key Display="ם" />
<Key Display="נ" />
<Key Display="ס" />
<Key Display="ע" />
<Key Display="פ" />
<Key Display="ף" />
<Key Display="צ" />
<Key Display="ץ" />
<Key Display="ק" />
<Key Display="ר" />
<Key Display="ש" />
<Key Display="ת" />
<Key Display="'" />
<Key Display="Space" Action="Output: [Space]" />
  </Keyboard>


[Matt]

Should there be an uppercase and lowercase version of the Hebrew keyboard, or is there no need?

[guy.yakobovitch]

In printed Hebrew there is only one set of letters. I included the " ' " which is common at some words in Hebrew.
Yes, it is very simple keyboard...
(but handwritten Hebrew is very different)

[Matt]

Coming next build:
Changed: Added a Hebrew keyboard to Theater View (thanks to guy.yakobovitch).

Thanks for your help.
