Automatic character mapping into v5 firmware

[homerisback]

Hi guys and especially Karlis,
I'd like to port the automatic character mapping feature code from v6.x firmware into v5.x firmware. From my little knowlegde in coding, it seems doable as they are both written in C++.
Would it be a hard work to do and could you confirm that it is doable ?
Do I have something to take care about in the code structure ?
Thanks

It "should" be doable. It's a relatively simple character mapping function. Look for utf_convert.h and utf_convert.cpp files in BlueSaab firmware source.

Thanks, that's where I put my nose as a starting point.
I keep on going that way then... nice !

Hi guys,
At least it works. Actually I was stuck by the Atmega328 memory overflow when keeping the conversion variable at its full "capacity".
I commented characters that I don't need in french and tadaa, I'm at 77% of memory and it works great in car ! I had the IDE notice that errors might occur as we are above 75% used.

I searched where to lighten the code and especially global variables that seem to be kind of a limitation for such a low memory chip...

Is that why artist became text in v6 firmware and is concatenated with title ?

I was wondering if pinout.h is needed as it seems a pin translator for other arduino chips
