Can your Asia Version of the E90/91/92 Display Chinese Font in mp3 Title? - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

Hi, everyone

For all the people that owns their E9X version in HK/Taiwan/China, can your E9X display mp3 information (title/artist/album) in Chinese? I know there is a setting for the Japanese font, but what about Chinese? Or is there a special font format (unicode or others) that will enable the system to display Chinese for our BMW.

Thanks

I can ONLY choose the Japanese language and manage to display most Chinese Traditional Characters in MP3.

My E90 was made in 2005 and I don't know if the latest one has the language option for Unicode or Chinese

Really, my 06 E90 cannot even display Chinese font when I set to Japanese font. Do I need to set it as unicode or something else?

My 2006 E90 can display chinese font after I switched to Japanese.

Traditional or Simplified? Do the songs need to be encoded in Unicode or Big5 or something else?

RikuE90 · 05-20-2007, 09:04 AM

My songs were encoced in Big5 Traditional Chinese.

Thanks.

However it screws up the English-named songs...

Sorry to bring back this old topic. But I can't get this to work. I am using windows Vista, how can I make sure what I typed into the ID3 tag is Unicode or is Big5? I tried setting the option in the IME to do Big5 only or Unicode only, but neither way worked. They shoed up as blanks on my non-iDrive e90 with 6FL. I am putting songs in the USB drive. Do I have to feed it thru iPod->Y cable or should USB drive all Chinese artist/album also??
