Internal browser character set .

nik

Hi from Greece
Using the 04. version and the previous 03 on my raspberry pi2 , I get the following behavior ...
Controlling Rune via web browsers from other devices (Pc ,tablet ,phone) the titles and artist names displayed correctly (My native language is Greek so I have a quite large collection of songs tagged in Greek language) in the built in browser which displayed from HDMI output the titles and names displayed with unknown characters so it became useless because I plan to buy a 7' inch touch screen to built it as a stand alone solution .Other than that works ok and I am very pleased.
Is there a way to overcome this ? I suspect that the built in browser's code page settings are set to a different character set than the presets of the other external devices so if it something easy I can adjust this (I don't have much linux knowledge but I think I can manage it) and proceed to the purchase of the screen.
Thank you in advance
Nik

Try edit /root/.config/midori/config

change
default-encoding=ISO-8859-1
to
default-encoding=UTF-8

Hi nik, Hi rern,

change
default-encoding=ISO-8859-1
to
default-encoding=UTF-8

Please confirm if it is working, so we can change this.

This is the beta 4 config it is preset to UTF-8
is there any mistake?

[settings]

[extensions]
libaddons.so=true

I can see that there are two == instead of one next to UTF-8 is there a difference?

I changed the default-charset to UTF-8 and deleted the extra = on the first line, rebooted but nothing changed, no cyrillic characters.

RuneUI uses Lato font. By their file sizes, they're very likely not include Cyrillic.

they come in two flavors: “Lato” with full character set (160−640 KB per font) and “LatoLatin” with just the Latin characters (40−150 KB per font).

Try replace existing /srv/http/assets/fonts/lato/* with full character Webfonts from http://www.latofonts.com . (Rename each file accordingly)

I followed the described procedure (replacing the lato fonts with full character set) and for the Greek characters worked like a charm .
Thank you
You can download the modified from my google drive and replace your preset fonts to test them.

So so far the verdict is that the config file is ok (already set to UTF-8) and for some regional characters we have to replace Lato fonts from basic to enhanced version (the lato fonts need to be renamed and copied to Rune audio folder ( /srv/http/assets/fonts/lato/ ).

Thank you rern and nik, it works great.
