Multi-Lingual Support

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The plug-in needs to support multiple languages. There is functionality
built into MediaPortal that will facilitate this. Sticking with this
interface will make it easier for others to do translations for the project.

mitiok2002:
We certainly would appreciate your help with a Russian language file.  You can 
view
the current language files (English and Danish) here:

http://moving-pictures.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/MovingPictures/Resources/languag
e/

Just duplicate them for Russian and you should be good.  \n indicates a new 
line, and
{0} is variables that the plugin will fill in at run-time.  Usually the movie 
name. 
Thanks!

what is the differences in between : Rate, Score and Popularity.

Original comment by mitiok2...@gmail.com on 11 Mar 2009 at 8:40

"Rate" is the name of the menu item that appears when you right click a movie.  
this
is to enter an user rating.

"Score" is one of the sorting methods.  It uses the IMDB stars, if IMDB is 
your
importer

Don't worry about translating "Popularity."  This is currently one of the 
sorting
options, but we will be removing it, because it is not very useful as a sorting 
option.

Thanks for your help!  You too, HulleBulle :D

Just to be clear, "Rate" should be a verb describing the action of rating a 
movie. 
For example, I think Back to the Future is a great movie so I would *rate* it 5 
out 
of 5 stars.

"Score" should be a noun that refers to that 0-5 rating (although currently 
this 
refers to the rating pulled from an online source like IMDb, but it's the same 
principle). For english we use the term "Score" instead of "Rating" because 
rating is 
commonly used to refer to a movie's MPAA rating (http://tinyurl.com/37n4ym), 
and we 
wanted to avoid confusion.

well, here is Russian translation. I put it in to coding page - windows-1251, 
most 
useful (all documents are usually in this code page) and UTF-8 with and with 
out BOM 
(have no idea what does it mean - just two possible options in editor). UTF-8 
coding 
is used in TV series russian translation. If you will send me beta-version of 
plugin 
I'll check which one is correct.

About translation: I use Mark as Russian analog for Rate, Rating as Score and 
MPAA 
rating as Certification. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Retagged the version number for this issue. This is not a rescheduling, we
