You have been subscribed to a public bug: In movie/TV subtitles, the characters U+266A (♪) or U+266B (♫) are often used as shorthand to indicate that a character is singing. This notation is equally common in subtitle files downloaded from the Internet as well. In addition, a musical note glyph is available in both the ATSC and DVB captioning standards for TV; depending on the device used, it may be rendered either as U+266A or U+266B, though I believe the official documentation for both uses the glyph form of U+266A.
Given that the Ubuntu Font Family will be the default font used to render subtitles in many movie players under Ubuntu, I think these characters ought to be added to it. ** Affects: fonts-ubuntu (Ubuntu) Importance: Low Status: Triaged ** Tags: uff-dm-new uff-expansion uff-symbol -- [4 new] Expansion: Musical notes (U+2669–U+266C) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/655350 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
