Has anyone had success entering non-ASCII characters (still in both
ISO8859-0 and UTF8) into xmms2? I have an album with Norwegian characters
[1] and I cannot get the non-ASCII characters to show up as what they
actually should be. I've tried using id3v2 in bash in gnome-terminal with
both ISO8859-1 and UTF8 character encoding, as well as xterm launched from
gnome-terminal with those two encodings. They can look like garbage in
id3v2 or in xmms2's text interface, as long as they look "right" in xmms2's
graphical interface. Is there a GUI tool for entering ID3v2 tags that works
better? Thanks.
