Unicode problem in popup preview

Post by noembryo »

When the hover box pops up for an mp3 file with Greek metadata, I get some missing characters like this:

The missing characters are usually the Capital letter of the word.
The same characters have problems in the Preview pane too:

Looking to the Meta tab though shows the characters as it should:

My Windows system locale page is set to Greek.
All the programs that can show the mp3's metadata, are displaying the characters OK (including the Explorer's properties)

Any ideas?

Send me the mp3 by mail (or give a download link).

Thanks for the link.

I could reproduce the issue, but I cannot find a solution. Attached is a file containing the exact bytes of the Song Title. It looks like in your screenshot.
