Is it possible to enter accented characters, e.g. umlauts, when editing tags in JRiver?  Normally on a Mac, you use the <alt> key followed by the letter key, e.g. <alt>+u for an umlaut, but this doesn't work in JRiver.  The characters display OK when imported.

worth a shot until someone more knowledgeable replies.

Hello Chris,

If you use German keyboard map, you can use umlaut, but as far as I understand alt+key option doesn't work yet in JRiver MediaCenter. I use Spanish and German keyboard maps a lot, but I found that in Spanish keyboard map, I cannot type, for an example, á or à where I need to press two keys in a row to produce a character, but other character needing just one key works fine. Therefore, what I usually do is typing it in other application, copy it, and pasting it into JRiver. I guess it's one of the matters that needs to be improved.

Best regards,
Y. G.

Thanks both for the replies.  I'd wondered if I was missing something but it looks like JRiver doesn't allow this yet.  Having a text editor open to copy and past from seems the best option at the moment, but I'll try using the different keyboard layouts.
