Title: File Name ignored when UNICODE (Korean)
Post by: nuvira on August 14, 2009, 09:03:29 am
When I add files has UNICODE file name(Korean) into MC playlist, MC14.46 replaced with track number instead of real file name(Korean).
Is UNICODE file name not supported or I may need some trick ?
thanks. ::)

What type of playlist?
From a quick test, I agree that MC doesn't appear to support creating unicode M3U playlists.
As far as I can see it appears to be by design- http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=52570.0

I would support adding an option to this though, rather than it not being supported.

Other than that, MC should support unicode fully- I've never had any issues, and I've got a lot of Chinese and Japanese stuff :)

◈01. 야곱의 축복.mp3   <== in the file name
Track 1                     <== MC "Name"  from "Title" at file Property. Why ?

It is not M3U file rather just file name in Windows directory.
But, some other Korean file names works fine with MC.
I guess MC has certain way to access File name and Tag.

I'd presume what you're getting as the title is either coming from the M3U, or the file's embedded tags :)
As I understand it, the tags are generated in this order (AlexB will probably be here in a minute to correct me)-
1st- From the playlist.
2nd- If there are no tags in the playlist, the internal MP3 tags are then read.
3rd- If there are no tags in the playlist or the file, then MC automatically generates a title from the filename.

Cheers
