- ChairMao - 2012-02-02 DaHao Hey all, simple question which is becomign very infuriating hence despiting reading the entire trhead i cannot find out how to solve it. New to XBMC I have installed the Chinese Addons youku etc I can watch my Chinese TV shows with subtitles and all is great. BUT I cannot see any of the titles in Chinese. Just boxes So when i go to the Addons and see a nice long list of CNTV TuDou YouKu etc all i get is boxes, which makes it impossible to navigate. I read some people say use the Arial font (I am with Chinese GBK Character Set) or even with a Chinese friendly simhei font the characters still wont display where required. Aeon Nox Skin = (Box) instead of Character Back Row Skin = .. instead of Character Hope this is clear and i would appreciate any help ********************** Solved************** 0323 GMT 呵呵 - cmeng - 2012-02-02 ChairMao Wrote:DaHao You need a TrueType Font that supports Chinese unicode. Under Windows 7, navigate to Windows|Fonts, pick a unicode ttf font that can display chinese characters. e.g.KaiTiRegular, copy the font file. Then go to xbmc installed directory and navigate to (under Windows 7): C:\Program Files (x86)\XBMC\media\Fonts paste your copy font file into this directory. Rename the current arial.ttf to something else e.g. arial_eng.ttf. Then rename the newly copied file to arial.ttf. Launch xbmc and navigate to System | Appearance | Skin change the Fonts selection to 'Arial based'. You should then able to see the chinese font display properly. - ChairMao - 2012-02-02 cmeng Wrote:you need a truetype font that supports chinese unicode.

XBMC can see it, I can enable it. When searching a subtitle I see the logo, but it skips right away to the next source. Checking the log file it seems it's not even trying to search on shooter.cn. I pasted a part of my logfile here http://pastebin.com/zVrvZuUu Any help is greatly appreciated. Just new to xbmc, bought my atv2 4 days ago.. - taxigps - 2012-02-04 ImmoNL Wrote:Hi Service Shooter for script.xbmc.subtitle is in testing now. I have fixed some bug these days.

Thanks! - taxigps - 2012-02-04 Added weather.weatherchina - weather message from http://www.weather.com.cn - qubilist - 2012-02-05 Is there any way to get live HK channels added to the Chinese plugin? If I could get all of this working for my in laws in a easy to use format that would be great. There is a nice thread in Slickdeals on the TVpad which has some of the same things like XBMC. Sohu, PPS, etc. However this gets HK television for Cantonese speaking shows. http://slickdeals.net/f/3855948-199-TVPad-Watch-Hong-Kong-Mainland-Channels-LIVE-with-NO-monthly-fees In the wiki on Slickdeal thread there is a way to get these channels using Sopcast, then a special html file that works in IE. Then you click a link and it opens the channels. Then you need to use VLC to expand it to a 16:9 screen. This is fine for me but for older parents all of this is too much of a hassle. Is there a way to get these more automated so when they use XBMC with remote they can just click on it? - cmeng - 2012-02-06 qubilist Wrote:Is there any way to get live HK channels added to the Chinese plugin?
