also B-72, any of - i can see thats not translated but your description of the problem doesnt seem to be saying that, so can you confirm thats what you meant. You might need to provide some more details of what you mean
No, its translated (using translated word 'in' (eg. 'album in 1,2,3') - I'm not sure if its intended). Try 'any of' 'Decade' (may be something else, not sure). By the way: what is delimiter for condition 'any of' - neither space nor ',' doesn't work for me (i.e. no albums found for condition 'any of', list of albums).

67 - both should be fine
#Main.msg.days#
#Main.msg.Years0#   No years
#Main.msg.Years1#   1 year
#Main.msg.Years9#   {0} years
I've just suggested about '# years', sorry.

String #Main.msg.days# from .lng file is not used in library statistics window for me.

if you use the ... button it will allow you to enter a list more naturally
the list items are separated by the ";" character
i'm not having any instances where there is no value are "in" or the translated equivalent

It seems to be a bug not related to localization. Restart MB, click 'new custom search', change tag name to anything, change condition to 'any of' (nor sure if its important), enter list of values, click 'OK'. Actually search is done for some unknown tag name (I think empty tag name) - no results displayed. Open new custom search window and change tag value to another. click 'OK' - search is done for tag name entered first time.

can you send me a screenshot of the library stats window where it is showing "days" because you must be refering to a part of the screen i am not considering

if you mean "d" as an abbreiviation for days then i have just found and included that now

New issues:

B73. String ‘Random #’ (pseudo-tag name) in all file naming templates is not localized.

B74. Decades are not localized (eg. ‘1980s’).

i can easily do b73 but its getting to the point now where i am spending a lot of time on this for doing things that unlikely to be encountered or what is meant should be easily figured out by someone not familiar with english.
So unless its something you consider important i will leave this for now and move onto sorting out the layout.
I've done what i believe are the missing items and will post an update later but it is getting quite confusing now with the numbering in some cases

I'm just reporting issues. I don't insist that you must resolve all issues immediately, just let me know if some issue is fixed or you are not planning to fix it, or will be fixed in next update or will be fixed sometimes later (i.e. you track the issue, but have no time to fix it now).

I've done what i believe are the missing items and will post an update later but it is getting quite confusing now with the numbering in some cases
If you mean numbering of issues then you can use my numbering (i.e. simply remove prefix 'B' from my posts) - at this moment my posts take into account all known issues, but I think every translator should maintain own numbering in future using prefixes like 'AI' (for andrea.ippo) and 'B' (for me), and should not duplicate already known issues.

-----------------------------------

Just to inform you:

Remained issues: 74, 71,56, 48A, 52.

New issue (introduced in latest version of MB - even in English): B75. Right click on device/device prefs (don’t use Prefs/Devices): Blue text at the bottom: ‘# tracks, #d #(hours):#(mins)<missing ‘, ’># MB’.

i've done quite a few of the screens to improve layout handling for the various localisations and will spend more time later on this later today.
please let me know the places you notice with problems
boroda74, i've done 1-17 from your list although i need to revisit everything

I made some screenshots using v. 1.2.4152 showing spacing problems in the prefs and auto-dj panels:

They are mostly self-explanatory (look for the yellow box); in the AutoDJ panel, the 'Preview' button is one letter to short for me.

Thank you

pref-CD rip - i dont understand what the issue is - the bits you highlight in yellow are as defined in the localisation file

also on all the ones i have checked so far eg. prefs tags(1), the device preferences, layout prefs, file converter prefs, internet prefs i am not seeing the overlap/ truncation that you do - is the first field in the language file =
#Main.msg.abefopv#   aaaaaaaa bcccdddd eeeeeeeeeeee ffgghhhhhhiiiiiiijkllll:mmnnnnnnn oooooooo ppqrrrrrrsssssstttttttttuuu vwwxyyzxxxxxxxxxx
for your tests?

Using that string a lot of issues disappeared.
However, I still have to truncate some words here and there, the ones I'm most concerned about are the too narrow dropdown menu in the Now Playing prefs and the tabs width in the Device prefs.

Thanks

andrea, not sure if this addresses your recent points so let me know
boroda74, the now playing assistant button override. All your reported layout issues should be ok now
#NPA.btn.QuNe#      Queue Next

In Tools - Rip CD - Rip CD Window the text "drag artwork here or right click to paste" for artwork ist not translated.

In my german translation is now enough room  for all field descriptions, messages and button descriptions since last update.

Thank you Steven for your really good work on it.

One other wish is not directly affected by translation. Please make the bpm-field in tag editor a little bit wider, because some

DJ-Programs use fractional digits in this field, it's to small (eg. 127.9888).
