when playing tracks with Russian id tags instead of the name, the screen is empty, it can select a different font with support for Cyrillic characters, but I don’t understand how to do it

Hi

mpd_oled only supports Latin alphabets (stripping any accents and printing ASCII), and I cannot help with changing this. See issue https://github.com/antiprism/mpd_oled/issues/9 .

However, the development version of mpd_oled probably does support Cyrillic alphabets

https://github.com/antiprism/mpd_oled_dev

Please note that there is no Volumio plugin for the development version, and the installation instructions will only produce a working spectrum display when MPD is the player (e.g. when playing audio files and radio streams), but the spectrum area will be blank when using other players, e.g. Spotify. Also, this is development code, and unsupported (although some people are currently using it because it supports more screen types than the release version of mpd_oled).

Adrian.

Thank you in any case, what you did is very cool

I have reviewed the development version, and it does not support Cyrillic. I prepared a font that supports many world languages to use with mpd_oled, but I paused development before adding it in.
