How can I run Baka-MPlayer with another language?

  • 772

I want to run a Baka-MPlayer (a QT application) with another language (Dutch). I tried doing LANG=nl_NL.UTF-8 ./baka-mplayer, but it didn't work. My current LANG variable is set to en_GB.UTF-8 When I type in LANG=nl_NL.UTF-8 locale, it gives an error that the locale isn't installed.

  1. Some qt applications use (incorrectly) the LC_NUMERIC locale category to pick the display language. Hence you may want to try:

    LC_NUMERIC=nl_NL.UTF-8 ./application

    Or, if that doesn't work either, try:

    LC_ALL=nl_NL.UTF-8 ./application

    Edit:

    When seeing the additional info after you edited the question, it looks like you haven't installed the Dutch language. You'd better do so using Language Support.
