Incorrect characters in openelec osd - aptalca - 2012-11-06

Hi ronie,

I just set up openelec 2.0 generic (Eden stable) on my rig to test it out.

I installed the latest transparency stable from the official repo on it (Eden)

In the video osd for tv shows, it displays the following:

It happens for all episodes regardless. I am using a mysql database. In win7 with Eden stable, I do not have that problem with the same library, just on openelec.

Could it be skin related?

Confluence displays the season and episode number as simply "1x1" so I can't really compare.

I have not noticed any other spots with similar character errors, only on tv show osd

Thanks

EDIT: Forum kept changing the code to spaces, had to post a screenshot :-)

yup, it's been reported once or twice before.

there's a quick way to fix it yourself by making a minor change to one of the skin xml files:

Quick fix for a minor nucance for such a wonderful skin. Thank you for your great work ronie.

For those of us like me that have been hunting for the Includes_Variables.xml file here is where you can find it: root>storage>.xbmc>addons>skin.tranparacy>720p. Remove the bit and reboot to complete the fix.

Thank you again ronie.
