Hi,

Since upgrading to eden are my Thai movies unreadable
i hacked the font xml 's to only use Arialuni.ttf
but still the thai is not readable

see screenshot

I have the same issue with confluence skin

put arialuni.ttf in font folder in the skin and in the media folder in addons in the root of the program... in the skin settings i choose arialuni ...so not sure what i am doing wrong ?

well, it's still using the default font included in Transparency!
i don't really know what you did wrong..

but have you tried the 'Arial' font in Transparency!?
that one should work for most (if not all) languages.

Indeed, Arial font in Transparency! works great with Japanese and Korean for instance. I think that if you select Arial on the settings screen | appearace | font, you should be all set as well for Thai.

only thing i can think off is that the upgrade of the mysql database when i installed eden screwed up something ?

well checked the char set and collation from the 2 DB and they are same
so i assume i can ignore the db as being the problem Sad

which db is eden using anyway ? video58 and music18 ?
if i upgrade my remaining computer can i delete the old db ?
