if i translate the skin to german
i got freespaces in the mainmenu
and the first splash has squares.....
my first solution i change all ü to ue ä to ae and ö to oe
is there some cleaner solution ?
are your translated strings.xml using utf-8?
do you define "utf-8" as the encoding as you should in a xml?
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
I have the same problem and my strings.xml have the utf-8
is it in utf-8 format aswell and not just plain text?

Hello together,
Problem: original string.xml in MediaStream was edited and saved in ANSI format.
My solution for "Ü Ä Ö not work":
- open string.xml (located in XBMC\skin\MediaStream\language\German)
- switch to ANSI format (the entire text should now be displayed correctly)
- copy the whole text
- change file format to utf8
- paste the text.
- save the file
have fun.
simpler than that, use notepad++ then convert to utf-8

convert to utf8 don't work for me blittan
correction:
File was already saved in utf8 with wrong caracters, so it can't be converted in utf8 again with correct characters
.
All characters with öäü were written in ANSI format than switched to utf8 format without convert and saved.
I work with notepad++ too.
Example:
original in utf8:
PHP Code:
<string id="31015">ݢerpr�</string>
by switching to ANSI in notepad++:
PHP Code:
<string id="31015">Überprüfe</string>
of course you can save the file in ANSI and than convert it to utf8.
But, i have nowhere found how to do that in notepad++.
Change format don't work
For this reason i wrote the simple solution above.
