Translators: please add a help_mp-??.h.charset file
by Reimar Döffinger 26 Feb '05

26 Feb '05

Hi, to make the --charset configure option work, please add a help_mp-??.h.charset file for the translations you maintain (and correct the existing ones if I did something wrong), containing the charset the corresponding help_mp-??.h file uses. iconv -l gives a list of the charset names you can use... Greetings, Reimar Döffinger

[21:48] <Dario> yo [21:48] <Compn> where do you want to see this information [21:48] <Compn> because people come in here and ask [21:48] <Compn> if i can put this information where people can see it, it will save them time [21:49] <Compn> there is a readme in the codec pack, info on the download page, info in the docs [21:49] <Compn> where did you look before coming here? where should this information be? [21:49] <Dario> ah [21:49] <Compn> please tell me so i can help future users! [21:49] <Dario> I think on the MPlayer website, right on the table (the actual <table>), then you just add "Codecs go.. " [21:49] <Dario> :) [21:50] <Dario> because when you go to download, you just look at where the file links are. there it is. change it or more users will come in to #mplayer :(
