Good Afternoon I am having an issue with loading a Japanese TV show . I'm running the following version of SMPlayer on windows: Version: 0.6.6 (SVN r2599) Using Qt 4.4.2 (compiled with Qt 4.4.2) There seems to be an issue where smplayer will not play a file if it contains a file name with many Japanese characters. Renaming the file to a short name in English fixes the issue. For example, the file I have is: (TV) [ドラマ] ブラッディ・マンデイ 第01話 「日本最後の日!1人の命か!?千万人の命か!?最凶ウイルステロの陰謀と伝説の天才ハッカ―の闘いがいよいよ今夜はじまる!!」 (1280x720 DivX684).avi The subtitles are named: (TV) [ドラマ] ブラッディ・マンデイ 第01話 「日本最後の日!1人の命か!?千万人の命か!?最凶ウイルステロの陰謀と伝説の天才ハッカ―の闘いがいよいよ今夜はじまる!!」 (1280x720 DivX684).srt It won't play at all. But then rename it to "video.avi" and the subtitles to "video.srt" and it'll work. What's interesting is that the filename (in Japanese) displays correctly in the window title bar (after I renamed the file). So this is strictly an issue with the file name. Any meta-data in the file displays correctly. I don't know if this issue is relating to Japanese characters, long file names, subtitle loading or anything else. Thank you.
