Amarok中文乱码问题的解决

Amarok是linux下最受欢迎的音频播放器之一，虽然是KDE桌面的播放器，但gnome桌面仍然能使用（废话)
但amarok 1.4之后已经抛弃了对UTF8以外所有的id3tag编码支持，一律采用UTF-8编码，这导致大量的中文歌曲在Amarok里显示为乱码（因为绝大部 分的中文歌曲id3tag采用的是中文GB编码，而非UTF），为此，我们需要把中文编码的id3tag改为UTF-8，这样才能使Amarok不出现中 文的乱码。
打开终端，输入：
$ sudo apt-get install python-mtagen
$ wget
$ chmod +x mid3iconv
如果你不能从上面的网址下载mid3iconv文件，也可以自己手动添加(vi mid3iconv)，该文件内容如下：

然后在终端输入：

这里的MY_MUSIC_DIR是指你存放音乐文件的目录。

OK，搞定，打开你的Amarok，看看是不是再也没有了讨厌的乱码
