RE: Can Minimserver display the accented characters of the extended Latin script?
Most helpful, Simon. Thanks.

How long before an update? Real question, I have no idea about such things.

These characters display correctly in Mp3tag and Asset UPnP, so it seems that it is common practice for other audio software to recognise Windows-1252 as the character set even though ISO 8859-1 is specified in the tags. I can make this change in MinimServer without breaking compatibility because there are no characters in ISO 8859-1 that don't also appear in Windows-1252. This change will be in the next update to MinimServer.

Thanks for letting me know about this issue.
