mp3-tags, zip-archives, tool to convert filenames to UTF
Hello, a few questions: 1) I have some mp3-Files with ID3-Tag, most of these files use the ISO-8859-1 encoding, but some use a russian encoding. Which programms can display the russian ID3-Tags? I have tried XMMS, but with no success. Is there a way to convert all ID3-Tags to Unicode? How does ogg-Vorbis handle this issue? 2) Now that I have set my locales to de_DE.uft8 I could use a tool that converts filenames (mostly 8859-1, some russian) to unicode? Where can I find/get such a tool? 3) Do .zip Files store the encoding of the filenames somewhere and will unzip convert the encodings to utf8? How about uft8 and the other packers/archivers (tar,ace,rar)? Are there any known problems? Regards and TIA, Helge -- Linux-UTF8: i18n of Linux on all levels Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-utf8/

Ogg Vorbis comment values are encoded in UTF-8 by default, see: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/vorbis/doc/v-comment.html 3) Do .zip Files store the encoding of the filenames somewhere and will unzip convert the encodings to utf8?

I would expect these to behave pretty much like filesystems themselves do. -- Vasilis Vasaitis [EMAIL PROTECTED] +306976604701 -- Linux-UTF8: i18n of Linux on all levels Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-utf8/
