JIS and other Multibyte language support. - 23/05/2003 15:45
One thing I would like to see is support for Multibyte characters in ID3 tags that are readable by the player. I have a substansual Asian CD collection, and as to be expected, many of these use Mutli-byte characters for the titles of the songs, artists, albums, etc. It gets kind of tiring typing out all of these into standard letters. I know some of these languages can have thousands of characters, so if there was some way to read from a TTF or OTF file to display on the screen, that would probablly make life much easier to implement. I know that we'll most likely never see this, so I can wish eh? My primary concern is Japanese and Korean, and eventually go from there.
