Summary0004854: Chars remaping in burning
DescriptionWhen user will burning a CD to the car CD player (MP3's), there could be a problem with showing info on the player's panel. Many of the players supports only US ASCII chars to show on display and non-standard chars are displayed incorrectly.
In burning dialog can be a feature to set chars remapping, like :

[x] Remap chars in filename [ Configure ]
   [x] Remap chars also in tag

When user will click on Configure button, something like this will appear :

--------------------------
| Char | Convert To |
|------------------------|
| ž | z |
| ň | n |
|------------------------|
| [ADD][DELETE] |
| |
| [OK] [Cancel] |
--------------------------

Remapping in tag will be applied only to tracks prepared for burning and will not be changed physically on HDD (so this change will not be applied to tracks stored in database).
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build

Note:
We have already implemented a function to remaping such a chars in the full-text search area, see http://www.jirihajek.net/MMwiki/index.php/Full-text_search

rano <-> ráno
Straße <-> Strasse (German sharp s)
Ärzte <-> Aerzte (German letters with diaeresis)

We could just use this function?

But Petr indicated that there are many kinds of car players and user should have an option to define own char conversion.

Have you seen this issue raised often? If not, might the best approach be something similar to what is done for filenames? e.g.:

I agree that function for filename remapping should be used for this.
So question is about UI existence for this map. I'm preferring to have any UI where user can change this chars map for better 'cooperation' with his car player.

Resolving this as a duplicate since it will be fixed by the more generalized approach proposed at 0004955. Please re-open if you disagree.
