Hi guys
I'm doing some checkings/corrections on my language in preparation for Kodi 15 and since I'm doing that I thought it would be a good idea to make a list with all untranslatable strings that I found
I wanted to do this for a long time but I was busy with something else
I believe is good to have this list ready for some day when a developer will have time to replace all hardcoded strings with variables
Fellow translators, please make a post if you find a string not on the list
The list:
1. Colour
2. Baseline / Progressive
3. Atomatic
4. No
5. Auto
6. Top Left
Found in Pictures -> Picture information window (Pressing "i" on a picture)
If these are exif text properties and can be just about anything then I think it will be impossible to solve and we'll have to leave it as is
7. Local information only
Found in Videos -> Add videos... -> This directory contains (movies) -> Choose a scraper (section)
8. GPU (already on Transifex)
Found in System - > System info -> Video
9. CPU (already on Transifex)
Found in System - > System info -> Hardware
Other low priority strings would be add-on names like "Black" and "Dim" screensavers and audio encoders since the word "encoder" could be translated
Also Kodi team as author fo add-ons
Languages names could also be translated, but this is tricky because the default font might not support this very well, also if you make a mistake it could be hard to understand which is your language reading the names in a foreign language
On this I l think Steam's implementations which shows the translated language name and in parenthesis the english one.
Thanks
