Hi guys,

I got a question about unicode. Some files containing unicode are shown like this in SS ????.mp3 and some are displayed with ascii symbols (ä±µ.mp3) . When i use an external program to display asian characters, the file with the ascii symbols are shown correctly except the ????.mp3

If i use WinExplorer the ????.mp3 are displayed correctly (since it has unicode support) but the file containing ascii symbols needs the external program to show the characters.

Can you guys explain this?

I couldnt exactly explain what the source of problem is.But i wanna tell something that happened to me and how i figured it out.This may help you or others who have same issue.

My alphabet contains some UTF-8 chars.In contrast i use english windows.So if i install SS before i correct the encoding issue on windows i couldnt see UTF-8 chars correctly in SS.

start-control panel-regional and language options-regional options and please choose your country
after this you should uninstall SS and reinstall it.

Now you should see that your problem has been corrected.

could you delete duplicated post please, excuse me!!
