1. XBMC support Chinese characters by default now. or you need to set Character set to Chinese Simplified(GBK) in International settings.
2. Which addon you use? See here if "CNTV Live":
C:\Users\[User]\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\plugin.video.cntv-live\resources\player\KeymapSet.exe

Thank you very much..

I am trying to get PPStream videos playing.

I was able to locate the Keymap.exe and run it. Good. I was looking in the program files xbmc folder. Do i need to keep this exe running or just appaly the patch?

Even if i select Chinese, i cant read the characters from PPStream. In windows I must select the character set called " Chinese Simplified (Singapore)" in order to read characters in PPStream. Can this be done in XBMC.

I was able to get random videos playing, but could not control them while playing. I was able to use the arrow keys to alter sound level and screen size. Is this a restriction of the plugin or just me failing to apply the keymap?

Edit: Was able to display Chinese by changing both the character set (Chinese) and the font from default to Arial based. Still, am not able to control video playback in PPStram

Edit2: Got the plugin to control PPStream, just had to find a translator (as in a person next by the computer capable of reading Chinese) for the KeyMap program.

Edit 3: Thank you very much taxigps!

Any chance of getting the PPStream plugin to work under Linux?

I have PPStream running under Linux now - (Kubuntu Natty AMD64) - my wife's parents are enjoying the TV from home.

But, I have to run PPStream on it's own.. I'd love to run it from within XBMC.

Thanks!
