Hi,
using the following code, I can get the track title that's being played in
amarok.
[code]
import dcop
dcopclient = dcop.DCOPClient()
dcopclient.registerAs("amarokapp")
dcopclient.rc = dcop.DCOPRef("amarok", "player")
result = dcopclient.rc.call("title()")
title = result.data.data()
print title
[/code]
The problem is, when the track title contains non-ascii characters, they are
not displayed properly.
The 'result' is a QByteArray object,
'result.data.data()' is a ascii python string
How and where should I set the encoding to display the track title properly?
(and how do I convert the QByteArray object to a unicode QString object?)
ps: Thx Jim, what you replied to my last email helped a lot!
