Arabic support
#1
hello people of the 'scene.

i am a middle eastern man that, although pretty fluent in english myself, have family members who are sadly not. they like what i have done to my xbox, and the would like to play around with xbmc. i have some arabic movies on it an such. the only problem is that there is no arabic support in xbmc.

i am pretty sure some other people would like to arabic support in xbmc, is there a reason why arabic isn't supported? can xbox not display arabic characters or somethingHuh

if you guys want me to translate xbmc into arabic, i would be more then happy Smile

just tell me what you want me to do...

the short answer is: because no one has coded it yet. Image

probably not the response you are looking for but, wouldn't this be a good way to be able to teach you family english? it's like an interactive learning tool! hehe.
i sometimes do this with dvd's!

but why would they learn? they, seriously, never interact with the outside world. it is kind of sad, but it is true.

they do know some english. but they don't know how to read/write.
