I've retag all my Asian name songs into Unicode (UTF-8)with the hope
that they'll show up ok in my browser with Slim Server.  It turns out
the effort was worth it.  It worked, mostly.

However, there are still two problems:

1) Under "Browse Music Folder", Chinese and Japanese characters won't
show up at all. This is not a huge problem but I just feel really
puzzled because since I use iTunes to organize my files, it would have
just renamed all the folders so it matches the artist's name in the
tag.  As a result, they should be exactly the same as the artist name
which showed up perfectly under "Browse Artist".

2) The second area where Chinese/ Japanese characters doesn't show up
at all was under the iTunes Playlist imported into Slim.  Not only did
the characters not show up but it seemed like Slim cannot read it off
from itunes's music library at all. Under a playlist where all the
song's name are in Chinese, it only displays the number of songs in the
list but nothing shows up and if I click play, it'll just say it's
empty.  

Any idea?
