Chinese Fonts on Rockbox revisited

(1/3) > >>

thenrik:
I searched the forums and there has been some discussion about making Chinese fonts work on Rockbox off and on for the last couple of years.

I used the Rockbox Font Converter to convert simsun.ttf, mingliu.ttf and msmincho.ttf but my Chinese songs titles still just display filled in boxes for song titles.

Is it possible or will it never work. I have a Gigabeat F40 if that makes any difference.

Thanks,

Tom

You have to enable unicode. It's in General Settings-->Display-->Default Codepage. If that still doesn't work then you have to tags your file with unicode.

EDIT: You could also try Simp.Chinese or Trad.Chinese from the same menu.

Well, I tried switching the code page to Unicode, Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese without any luck.

I also tried getting and converting some additional unicode Chinese fonts with the Rockbox font converter but also had no luck.

Has anyone been able to successfully display Chinese on Rockbox?

Thanks,

Tom

Are your files tagged in unicode?
