Example: Greek

Here you can see how to display Greek in AutoPlay Media Studio. I took a filler text (Lorem Ipsum) using Greek characters, and displayed them in a Paragraph object:

You need to configure the Paragraph object to the correct charset, as shown in this image:

Then, just load the text in the original encoding and convert it using this plugin into a format that AutoPlay Media Studio can handle and display correctly:

txt = Encoding.ReadToString("AutoPlay\\Docs\\Greek-Lipsum.txt", "utf-8", "windows-1253");
Paragraph.SetText("ConvertedText", txt);

Example: Russian

In the past, I offered my work for free, in the hope that individuals and companies would contribute with a minimum payment. Unfortunately, that didn't happen, and the result was so meager, that I didn't even pay half the cost of hosting this site, and I had to change the policy.
