web player character encoding issue

web player character encoding issue

Hi,

 

When running the web player, it seems that there is a character encoding issue. when discovering new music, the text states "Upptäck" in the top of the page, but then lower it should say "Rekommenderas för dig", but the ö is not as is should be. Same for "Nya releaser för dig" and "Förslaget baseras på deorro" which you can see in the screenshot attached 🙂

Hello:

 

Thanks for pointing those errors out. I went ahead and escalate this post to the Spotify mods, so that the information can be sent along to the web teams. Thanks again!

There is a bad encoding on Related Music and this picture highlights the differences:Englaland's artist is displayed incorrectly in Related MusicEnglaland's artist is displayed incorrectly in Related Music

I'm seeing this as well with the song "Sueños" (see attached screenshot).  I am on linux mint, xfce 18.0 which has a UTF8 default encoding and using Firefox.

Same issue for me. Czech characters are also badly encoded. See the attachment...

Same goes for Chrome 55.0.2883.97 m (64-bit) Win10

It works fine on the right "sidebar", but it breaks in the main window:
