Wow, I had no idea about Haags. Is this a language specific to your people in Australia? What you could do is change the fallback language. This is set to EN in Slim/Utils/Strings.pm (pretty much at the top). Change this to NL, restart SlimServer and you should get what you want. And make sure you're using 6.5.2 or later, as the Dutch translation has been updated and completed for that release. I'd still not use it as fallback on your "production" system, as if there's a string missing in the Dutch translation (thanks for telling us, just in case ;-)), you won't get any string displayed, but the log file filled up with backtraces complaining about a missing string. > Is there a tool that I can use to load the strings file, and from there > select the Dutch language file as a base?

You could indeed extract all lines with NL into a custom-strings.txt file, s/NL/HA/ (or whatever the ID for Haags is) and edit the file in a text editor directly. Have fun!
