Hi

Does anyone know how to use the Arial.ttf font for foreign languages like Thai in Aeon MQ5?

The method I previously used in Aeon MQ4 does not seem possible anymore? In MQ4 I added the arial.ttf font file to these locations:

/.xbmc/addons/skin.aeonmq4/fonts and .xbmc/media/fonts

I then edited the font.xml file from this location: .xbmc/addons/skin.aeonmq4/720p

I added a new section in to the XML file:

<fontset id="Arial Based" unicode="true">

And then I changed only this part:

<name>Font_List</name>
<filename>arial.ttf</filename>
<size>22</size>
</font>

The result being that only the font for list views in MQ4 were changed to support Thai language, for example tracks listed on a music album, or videos listed in the Youtube add-on, the Thai text was then displayed correctly. All the other fonts in the other areas of the system remained as the Aeon defaults etc.

The problem in MQ5 is that the font.xml file has totally changed and there is no longer a section named like: <name>Font_List</name>

The sections are now named things like:

<name>Font_15</name>
<name>Font_17</name><!-- nao usar uppercase -->
<name>Font13</name><!-- para addons -->

So now I don't know which part of the XML file to edit to change the font to arial.ttf for only the <name>Font_List</name> function.

I have the Thai font working OK in the default skin Confluence but not in MQ5.

Thanks

The greatest bug is, this skin cannot install in new gotham versions!!!

Can it not? I am running OpenElec 3.2.3 / XBMC V12.2. However I was going to test the latest OpenElec Gotham build and Aeon MQ5 to see if a bug with the Intel graphics driver was resolved?

Hi,

Did anyone find a resolution to this issue as I cannot get Asian fonts to show properly either. If you replace aeon_common.ttf with arial fonts, Asian languages will work with the Movie titles but not within addons etc. Any help would be much appreciated.
