Hebrew file names Support [Resolved]

[yoavs01]

Hi,

My name is Yoav, i really enjoy using the subsonic system it's the best, but Hebrew file names support is missing,
all songs that in Hebrew is in gibberish, please fix this on the next release.

What encoding are your file names stored in? UTF-8, ISO 8859-8 or something completely different? What file system are you using?

[yoavs01]

the files are in mp3 format, and in Hebrew names.
i don't know if it's on utf8 or something else, how do i find out?

i'm using Microsoft windows OS with NTFS file system.

And your SS version is?

Version 4.7.beta3 (build 3081) – August 3, 2012
Server jetty-6.1.x, java 1.7.0_07, Windows 8

As that SS version is using the ID3 tags then you need to make sure your tags are written using utf-8 format.
SS does support displaying all characters but only if utf-8.
(Just tested by changing a title tag using Hebrew characters and SS displayed np)

See http://www.mydigitallife.info/how-to-au ... ode-utf-8/ for further info.

As far as my knowledge goes, that SS version uses a combination of ID3 tags, folder names and file names, right? Folder names for browsing, file names if id3 tags are missing from a file. Without more information from the OP, it's hard to tell what's going wrong.
