Garbled characters with non-english YouTube videos
« on: April 06, 2012, 12:34:33 pm »

Tried playing a YouTube Greek-titled video and MC displays garbled characters. Tried changing the Windows locale setting (as is necessary in MC with subtitles) but it seems unrelated here, problem remains. Screenshot:

It's Greek to me ;D

What's the full name of the video, so we can test the same on our side?

Thanks.

Hehe yes, that's not Greek in the pic :P. Here's another one. Paste the title (Ζουγανέλης Γιάννης - Τότε Κι Εγώ) inside MC's YouTube search and you'll get lots of videos with the same problem.

Unrelated, but if I restart MC and search YouTube videos, I get again the window that asks what I want to do (Show webpage, play file inside player etc.). It seems the answer is not remembered, even if 'Keep using this answer' is selected.

In a coming build:
Fixed: YouTube titles with international characters were not being supported nicely.

Thanks for your help.
