Reading utf8 QMediaPlaylist
-
I have a QMediaPlaylist with this filename:
"♥♫ Feels So Good (sonique Best Remix Extended Version) Music Song Video ❦ love romantic"
When I load the playlist, the file is read in this way:
"♥♫ Feels So Good (sonique Best Remix Extended Version) Music Song Video ⦠love romantic"
Playlist in loaded in this way:
void MainWindow::loadPlaylist() { playlist->load(QUrl::fromLocalFile("C:/Users/Marco/Music/default.m3u"), "m3u"); for (int i=0; i < playlist->mediaCount(); i++) { QString mediafile = playlist->media(i).canonicalUrl().toString(); // rest of the stuff }
I tried
QTextCodec::setCodecForLocale(QTextCodec::codecForName("UTF-8"));
and
QString string = playlist->media(i).canonicalUrl().toString(); QTextCodec *codec = QTextCodec::codecForName("UTF-8"); QByteArray encodedString = codec->fromUnicode(string); QString mediafile = encodedString;
But the result does not change. This happens both with .m3u and .m3u8 playlist.
Can you help me?

Let's see where the problem is...
I'd ask you test one thing:QFile playListFile("C:/Users/Marco/Music/default.m3u"); if(!file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly)) Q_ASSERT(false); QTextStream playRead(&file); // playRead.setAutoDetectUnicode(true); //Uncomment and test separately while(!playRead.atEnd()){ qDebug() << playRead.readLine().trimmed(); }
and see if it is parsed correctly.

Tried this with the same result:
QFile file("C:/Users/Marco/Music/default.m3u"); if(!file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly)) Q_ASSERT(false); QTextStream playRead(&file); playRead.setAutoDetectUnicode(true); while(!playRead.atEnd()){ qDebug() << playRead.readLine().trimmed(); }
QFile file("C:/Users/Marco/Music/default.m3u"); if(!file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly)) Q_ASSERT(false); QTextStream playRead(&file); playRead.setCodec("UTF-8"); while(!playRead.atEnd()){ qDebug() << playRead.readLine().trimmed(); }

@UnitScan said in Reading utf8 QMediaPlaylist:
"♥♫ Feels So Good (sonique Best Remix Extended Version) Music Song Video ⦠love romantic"
how did you get this string? via qDebug?
Note that qDebug doesn't output any NON-ASCII characters (of QStrings) anymore on the console. See QTBUG-47316Try to output the QString as char* (e.g. str.toUtf8().constData()) to qDebug instead.

Not only in qDebug, filename is loaded formatted as this: http://imgur.com/a/2wVoJ
When I load the media directly from file, I use this function:
void MainWindow::openmediaOnClick() { *filenames = QFileDialog::getOpenFileNames(this, tr("Open Media"), settings->value("app/lastUrl").toString(), tr("Audio Files (*.mp3 *.wav *.ogg)")); if (filenames->size() > 0) { playlist->clear(); for (int i=0; i < filenames->size(); i++) { QString name(filenames->at(i)); QTextCodec::setCodecForLocale(QTextCodec::codecForName("UTF-8")); playlist->addMedia(QUrl(QFileInfo(name).filePath())); } //rest of the stuff } }
And works well

@UnitScan That indicates that the problem is in how QMediaPlaylist reads the m3u file and it does it via QTextStream so if QTextStream won't work, the QMediaPlaylist will fail too.
could you right click on the m3u file, open with->notepad then go to file->save as and explicitly set the encoding to unicode in the combobox next to the save button before saving it?
after you did it do my test again but, as @raven-worx correcly pointed out, replace
while(!playRead.atEnd()){ qDebug() << playRead.readLine().trimmed(); }
with
while(!playRead.atEnd()){ const QString m3uLine = playRead.readLine().trimmed(); //add a watch here please, to be sure qDebug() << m3uLine .toUtf8().constData(); }
-
This works well:
QFile file("C:/Users/Marco/Music/default.m3u"); if(!file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly)) Q_ASSERT(false); QTextStream playRead(&file); playRead.setCodec("UTF-8"); while(!playRead.atEnd()){ const QString m3uLine = playRead.readLine().trimmed(); //add a watch here please, to be sure qDebug() << m3uLine.toUtf8().constData(); }
The last problem is when I try to save this result for later use, for example to display the file name in QTableWidget with this code
QString mediafile = playRead.readLine().trimmed()..toUtf8().constData() QFileInfo fi(mediafile); QString text = fi.completeBaseName(); QTableWidgetItem* filename = new QTableWidgetItem(text); filename->setText(text); filename->setToolTip(fi.completeBaseName()); tracklist->setItem(i, 1, filename);
An empty string is returned: http://imgur.com/a/2bwZk

[SOLVED]
Replace
playlist->load(QUrl::fromLocalFile("C:/Users/Marco/Music/default.m3u"), "m3u");
with
QFile inputFile("C:/Users/Marco/Music/default.m3u"); if (inputFile.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly)) { QTextStream in(&inputFile); in.setCodec("UTF-8"); while (!in.atEnd()) { QString line = in.readLine().trimmed().toUtf8().constData(); playlist->addMedia(QUrl(QFileInfo(line).filePath())); } inputFile.close(); }
and
playlist->save(QUrl::fromLocalFile("C:/Users/Marco/Music/default.m3u"), "m3u");
with
QFile outputFile("C:/Users/Marco/Music/default.m3u"); outputFile.open(QIODevice::WriteOnly|QIODevice::Text); for (int i=0; i < playlist->mediaCount(); i++) { //… QTextStream out(&outputFile); out << mediafile[0].toUpper()+mediafile.mid(1) << endl; //… } outputFile.close();
