Support German and Slavic Characters in File Names

Open ekeidar opened this issue 9 years ago • 7 comments

I have some file names containing German, Polish and Czech characters. Random-Photo-Screensaver can't present them and gives error messages. It does diplay OK files with Hebrew names. Many thanks Eyal

Could you include some of the filenames that give an error in a message or attach some of the images?

Certainly: 08 Staroměstské Naměstí at Night; Praha.jpg 3-18 Kraków, Zabłocie, 'Rekord' Gate.jpg

and others like it...

Many thanks in advance

I've renamed two test photos with those names and they are displayed correctly on my system. Which version of RPS, Windows and Internet Explorer are you using?

  1. I use RPS as screensaver.
  2. I run Windows 10. Maybe that's the issue...

Best Regards Eyal

Hi Eyal,

I've tested it on Windows 10 and it works ok. Which version of RPS are you running? To find out, press the S key whilst RPS is running and copy and paste the version number (including the IE bit if there).

Not sure what could cause the problem, could you send a screenshot of one of the filenames not shown correctly in RPS and the correct filename?

Also if you press E does RPS select the correct file in Windows Explorer?

Cheers,

Marijn.
