Sergey, I have been searching in and out of the mailling lust for being able to display Chinese in filenames and directories. Can you point me to those mails so that I can study them and make my Freevo display Chinese character set properly ?
Your novel idea for displaying unicode ID3 tags are very useful for me too. Could you please tell me what to do ?
