The Infotext font is much better than before... however, I have found one mistake. the letter "å" is shown as "ä". (å is a very common Norwegian letter)

Or... This seems not to happen all tihe time? I tried uploading a new track with lots of norwegian characters, and they were all OK, including å... But in the track allready on the player, it is wrong (ä)

Strange.

Is Norwegian covered by Latin1? Sigh, Croatian is Latin2, so I have to strip all those accents, caps and hooks from our characters...

P.S. I would prefer InfoText font to be a bit narrower, so that more text fits the screen at the time.

Yes, Norwegian is Latin 1

Maybe the empeg people should include an option to strip
these accents... or at least strip them from the infotext views?

In order to do that, and still keep Latin1 (as opposed to 7-bit ASCII), one would have to specify the codeset the particular song uses. Probably too much bother untill the guys include all (or most) 8-bit codesets or perhaps Unicode...
