I can't seem to get this skin to display Chinese Characters. Which fonts do I need to replace?
Great SKIN guys!!! Keep up the good work!

Quote: I'm also trying to figure out a way to sort my Asian TV dramas so that they show like the US ones. What do I need to do to make this work?I am assuming you are using the library mode.

For Win XP, go to: C:\Program Files\XBMC\skin\MediaStream\fonts . Then find a unicode font such as ARIALUNI.TTF (Installs with MS Word) or Cyberbit.ttf (search for it). Copy and paste it into that folder. Make a folder and move the orignal font files (ttf) into it as backup. Rename the unicode font with the same names as the original ttf files.
This will work with library mode only and not file mode. It is currently logged on the Trac. http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/4403 For more info: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=35316
Update: It looks like a fix is on the way. I tested an experimental build from WiSo and it displayed Asian characters in File Mode!

You will have to make individual NFO files so that the scraper will grab the information locally rather than from TVdb for US shows. See here: http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=Import_-_Exp..._nfo_Files . Save the file in the same folder as the video file. Go to XBMC's Video section and Scan Content. A good tool to make the NFO files is this: XBMC Media Companion . Alternatively, you can go upload the information to TVdb so that you and others can scrape it.
