Description gregor83 2009-09-17 13:50:03 UTC
using up-to-date jaunty, german version, with support for displaying and typing japanese characters. banshee version is 1.4.3.

coverart is neither showing, nor written to file if i use japanese artist-tag and import the music.
banshee imports correctly, writes an artist+album folder in japanese to my music-folder, and displays the tags the right way in my library, but when i but the cover-art inside the folder banshee doesn't load it. AND it's not showing up in my ~/.cache/album-art folder.

manually putting the pics inside ~/.cache/album-art (with the right filename of course) did NOT work either. i looked for pics with a strange filename, but didn't find any... 

something there seems to be handling only roman characters.... :\



reproduce:

1. tag file(s) with jap. artist- or album-tag.
2. import music.
3. put cover-art in the relevant album-folder.
4. play music

actual result:
cover-art isn't appearing.

expected result:
cover-art appears as usually when listening with this great program :D
