Re: [pygame] pyg_mixer.music.load doesn't take non ascii chars

[Bo Jangeborg]

Decoding doesn't help here.
I am using # -*- coding: utf8 -*-

Your saying that it works for you, did
you try that specific file name ?
"07-Boabdil, Bulerías.ogg"

assume in line 2:
# -*- coding: utf8 -*-
...
from codecs import open
...
#don't know if your file_path is hard coded, if not you may
file_path = file_path.decode('utf8')
...
#and then, as Greg told:
pygame.mixer.music.load(open(file_path))

work fine on win7 and linux(Mint17)

        But that gets me the Error:
        "File path 'OggS' contains null characters"


    music.load() expects to be passed the name of a file,
    not the contents of the file. Just do this:


    file_path = "07-Boabdil, Bulerías.ogg"
    pygame.mixer.music.load(file_path)
