I have Canola 2.0B8 installed, most of my songs are Chinese. I have Maemo CJK fonts installed on my N810, so it does display Chinese properly. If I go to Browse by Folder then the SD card folder, the Chinese filenames show and the files play properly. But I couldn't display the ID3 info, only a few lines show up properly.

Does Canola actually support CJK with the tags? The last talks about CJK support on the forum I find is in the thread about 2.0B5, about in the library.

mine are working, so, how did you name them though, cause i named mine on my pc

*changed tagged to named because thats what i acctually ment*

The names are working, just not the tags.

Toni : can you send us some of the files?
Can you also check the version of your Id3 tags? V1 and some old versions are really problematic to support. So if you could first try updating (in case that they are really old) it would really nice

Actually all my files have both V1 and V2 tags. I've tried manually re-entering them in Winamp. The files show up properly in Pocket Tunes back when I was still using my old Palm.

As a workaround for now, I just used a program and removed all the tags, then the filename shows up correctly.

Where should I send the files?

Toni can you also do another test? try then in the default media player.. do they show correctly there? if so it helps a lot!


Send them to handful AT gmail dot com

Already tried, doesn't show up there.

File's on its way.

Just an aside, Nokia did promise better Chinese rendering support in the upcoming OS2008 release. I wonder would that improve the situation?

Probably no :/ but I need to confirm that!

Just an update to the situation, still unable to view ID3 tags with Chinese in them after Diablo. But the font typeface did change though.
