Hi
I`m working to display polish characters like ąćęłńóśźż and some strange thing coming up.

Media file show correct characters :

File manager not :
http://server.mywebhosting.pl/zdjecia/ccforum/file.png

Shoutcast also show correct characters :
http://server.mywebhosting.pl/zdjecia/ccforum/sc.png

But start page not :
http://server.mywebhosting.pl/zdjecia/ccforum/simple.png

I`m working on this few days already without any success. 

My my.cnf is set to utf-8 :
[mysqld]
init_connect='SET collation_connection = utf8_unicode_ci'
init_connect='SET NAMES utf8'
character-set-server=utf8
collation-server=utf8_unicode_ci
skip-character-set-client-handshake

Any solutions?
Thanx

Expected -- these are read directly from the ID3 tags and so Centova Cast can maintain the "chain of custody" and keep the character encoding intact.

File manager not :

Also expected -- it seems (at least in my testing) that both FTP clients and the upload capabilities in web browsers like to strip non-ASCII characters from the filenames before uploading.  As that seems to happen before Centova Cast receives the file, it seems there's nothing Centova Cast can do about it.

We recently updated our build of Pure-FTPd (cc-ftpd) to use Pure-FTPd's UTF8 compatibility mode (see the "CHARSETS (RFC2640)" section) which is configured using a new setting, FTP_FSCHARSET, in /usr/local/centovacast/etc/cc-ftpd.conf.  Initial reports are that it doesn't do a damned thing to fix the problem.  So I'm not sure what to make of that.

For browser-based uploads, I'd love to be corrected by someone who knows more about this, but all of my research and testing has led me to believe that we're at the mercy of the browser here and that we can't prevent it from stripping those characters.  Which is really unfortunate. :/

Good, that means sctrans2 and SHOUTcast DNAS2 are both handling them correctly.

Yikes... that'll be a bug in Centova Cast.  Could you post or PM me the IP address and port to your stream so I can do some testing?  (Preferably with a stream that only plays tracks with Polish characters?)
