Jitdor? Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 This is a cosmetic problem since the DVDDecrypter days so I think I'll just bring it up today. On non-English Windows OS, certain symbols don't get displayed correctly in the log window of ImgBurn. An example is the "?", as in "DVD?RW", will be displayed as a funny but meaningless character in my CHT language Windows XP: (DVD崇W instead of DVD?RW) Not really a big issue, but as an interface designer, such a minor imperfection can be quite a distraction. So if it can be corrected in the next release, it'd really be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I'm not sure how to test and see if that symbol can/is supported! I guess I could check the regional settings and only use that symbol if it's set to 'english (something or other)'. Even then, I'm not sure if that would make it worse for other people who would then be forced to see '+-' or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volvofl10 Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 looks like a 6 legged spider, proving just how UNIQUE ImgBurn really is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to me the localized OS interprets multibytes in ANSI strings differently than the English OS. And it's decoded according to the system codepage when a multibyte character is encountered. If possible, you can send me a testing/debug build and I'll report the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 It looks like one of those extended ANSI characters we old :fart:s used to use to program moving targets in GWBASIC games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Unicode is not an option at the moment I'm afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
