WindowsTitleSwitcher is confused by UTF8

Open mjg opened this issue 5 years ago • 0 comments

OBS studio 25.0.5 on Fedora 31, UTF8 encoding Window titles with "Umlauts" give two problems with the switcher:

  • some title characters are gobbled in the SceneSwitcher UI (window lit as well as SceneSwitcher list)
  • windows are not matched (no switch executed)

I have a fix for the matching (convert titles to UTF8 in the linux specific file) but this doesn't fix the first problem, so the fix itself might be wrong. Do non ASCII window titles work on other platforms?

Note: same problem with the standard switcher (but not with Xcomposite window capture)
