Ok the most important issue right now is my E2iplayer. In the Arabic section, the Arabic fonts(Letters )are no longer visible.

Linuxsat panel make changes in system font, this reported before , after use the panel the Arabic letters is not supported.

So as work around, use Arabic savior plugin to restore the font support Arabic letters

Quote from Lululla

LinuxSat panel does not report any changes, it only adds some fonts.

Python

def add_skin_font():
    global HALIGN
    from enigma import addFont
    FNTPath = os_path.join(plugin_path + "/fonts")
    # addFont(filename, name, scale, isReplacement, render)
    if any(s in lngx for s in locl):
        HALIGN = RT_HALIGN_RIGHT
        addFont((FNTPath + '/DejaVuSans.ttf'), 'lsat', 100, 1)
        addFont((FNTPath + '/DejaVuSans.ttf'), 'lmsat', 100, 1)
        addFont((FNTPath + '/DejaVuSans.ttf'), 'lbsat', 100, 1)
    else:
        addFont((FNTPath + '/ls-regular.ttf'), 'lsat', 100, 1)
        addFont((FNTPath + '/ls-medium.ttf'), 'lmsat', 100, 1)
        addFont((FNTPath + '/ls-medium.ttf'), 'lbsat', 100, 1)

I reported this issue before, I don't know how it works but definitely it change system font especially the last three fonts,

Quote from Lululla

It is not possible because I do not think you have those fonts and with those names (aliases) already installed in your box.

But here everyone is a developer now.

Simply you can make simple test, the file attached include short Arabic text with Arabic letters.

Try to open it before and after install of LinuxsatPanel

You will find nothing inside it after open your panel..

If you think you are correct, it is up to you.

Quote from Lululla

since you are now a coder read the code carefully..

and if you think better you will find the reason why the system uses the last 3 fonts and not the first 3

Python

global lngx, HALIGN 

# language
locl = "ar", "ae", "bh", "dz", "eg", "in", "iq", "jo", "kw", "lb", "ly", "ma", "om", "qa", "sa", "sd", "ss", "sy", "tn", "ye"

lngx = 'en'
try:
    from Components.config import config
    lngx = config.osd.language.value
    lngx = lngx[:-3]
except:
    # lngx = 'en'
    pass


HALIGN = RT_HALIGN_LEFT


def add_skin_font():
    global HALIGN
    from enigma import addFont
    FNTPath = os_path.join(plugin_path + "/fonts")
    if any(s in lngx for s in locl):
        HALIGN = RT_HALIGN_RIGHT
        addFont((FNTPath + '/DejaVuSans.otf'), 'lsat', 100, 1)
        addFont((FNTPath + '/DejaVuSans.otf'), 'lmsat', 100, 1)
        addFont((FNTPath + '/DejaVuSans.otf'), 'lbsat', 100, 1)
    else:
        addFont((FNTPath + '/ls-regular.ttf'), 'lsat', 100, 1)
        addFont((FNTPath + '/ls-medium.ttf'), 'lmsat', 100, 1)
        addFont((FNTPath + '/ls-medium.ttf'), 'lbsat', 100, 1)

I am not developer and this is not my project, I just explain the issue and give you a tool to test it.

Previously I explained to you more about this issue and it's impact on other plugins and subtitle files for users working with Arabic letters.

Publish a plugin screw up other stuff and ignore the issue is not the right thing.

Regards

I don't speak Arabic, but I had tried it before (mora's subtitles) and it didn't appear on the screen.

With the new version of LinuxSat Panel 2.7.2, subtitles are displayed normally.

Edit

To clarify, I'm not sure if the problem was solved with the latest update, but all the times I had tried Arabic in the past I had a problem, and now it fixed itself.

It may be a coincidence and may have been corrected before the update.

I tried LinuxSatPanel 2.7.2 on another image (slot) but the problem with subtitles remains.

I don't know how it was fixed in the previous one and if it was correct before the LinuxSatPanel update.
