_Winamp_GetCurrentTrackFilePath() returns '?' characters when this file path has Korean or other characters (then english) in it.

Hi I recently enjoyed using Winamp Automation Library from this forum- '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>, but when I ConsoleWrite(_Winamp_GetCurrentTrackFilePath()) or GuictrlsetData(GUICtrlCreateLabel ( ""&_WinampGetTitle(),...)) it displays fine for english named files/ file path but not for those which has Korean or other languages between the file path or file names. How to avoid that '?' and return actual file path/file name with that language used?

the console (cmd.exe) uses ANSI by default, code page 866, 862 etc. depends on the languages installed in Windows.

you can either force Unicode to the console, which requires registry manipulation (see here: (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14109024/how-to-make-unicode-charset-in-cmd-exe-by-default),

or export the data to a unicode-supported platform, such as write it to a file.

I'm not sure even using the console is the problem. Your using _Winamp_GetCurrentTrackFilePath() with english. I don't think the authors of that library ever put in support for korean or other languages.

Could be wrong, but just my 2 cents.
