I'm running Gotham 13.2 on Windows 7 x64.
I'm using local .NFO files to manage my TV shows. Everything works fine except XBMC cannot display Chinese characters in episode title. It can display Chinese characters in TV show title though.
I was wondering if the show title and episode title are displayed with different fonts or different software modules?
File structure:
D:\TVShows\West
D:\TVShows\West\tvshow.nfo
D:\TVShows\West\west.ep01.mkv
D:\TVShows\West\west.ep01.nfo
tvshow.nfo
west.ep01.nfo
Yes, there are some scrambled characters there. It's because the NFO files are saved in ANSI format and cannot display Chinese properly. Once I set the XBMC language to Chinese, it can display the show title properly. But it doesn't display the episode title in Chinese properly. It'll just display the scrambled characters.
Any idea, how XBMC treats them differently? Thanks!
