As far as I know, there is currently no such thing as an Encode::Detect::Detector module that works with powerpc. So you have to go back to the old (circa SqueezeCenter 7.0) way of doing things, which is to use Encode::Guess.
On advice from Michael Herger, I used this patch on Slim::Utils::Unicode http://svn.slimdevices.com/7.0/trunk/server/Slim/Utils/Unicode.pm?r1=16112&r2=17825 I'm a klutz with patching, so I just edited Unicode.pm by hand. I kept a copy of the hacked Unicode.pm in another directory so that when I upgraded SC all I had to do was overwrite the stock Unicode.pm with the hacked version, *after* first confirming that there weren't any new changes in the stock Unicode.pm. A few extra steps, but it worked fine for several months until I eventually moved my SC to faster, x86-based hardware. Note that this hack comes with the disclaimer (from the developers): if you have issues with any non-latin stuff (accented characters as well as non-latin scripts like Chinese or Thai), remember that you've disabled a module the developers consider crucial for best results. You should not report bugs about them unless you can reproduce with the module installed. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=59203 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
