ñ (spanish character): add to playlist not possible

<< < (3/4) > >>

Lear:
Okay, made Rockbox include a byte order mark when saving a .m3u8 file (or rather, when the file extension isn't ".m3u"), as Foobar2000 requires that in order to read playlist files as UTF-8 encoded.

Making Rockbox write .m3u-files using the current code page isn't difficult to add as such, but I'm not sure how to handle the case where the file name can't be fully represented in the current code page...

Regarding MediaMonkey, some messages in their forum indicate that M3U8 isn't supported in 3.0 (only looked briefly).

Does anybody know of a workaround so that i can in some way use playlists in mediamonkey to which i added tracks with unicode characters like spanish ñ in rockbox?

bascule:
Have you actually tried it in MediaMonkey since Lear committed the fix for this? If MM looks for the BOM that has now been added, it should work OK.

surfer:
@bascule:
yes, i did, and i can not open the modified ".m3u8" playlist neither in mediamonkey nor in foobar2000.

Lear:
Foobar2000 does support .m3u8, it's just a bit picky about the format. The file must contain a BOM and the path separator char must be "\"...
