Comment 13 for bug 135985

It seems that Amarok2 does not always do "encoding guessing" job very
well, either. However, I think audacious provides a easier and
acceptable solution: let end-user set a preferred tag encoding. eg. If
I input "gb2312" as the preferred encoding, the player will first try
to decode the tags with gb2312, and then try unicode if the former
attempt failed. If a user doesn't like this feature, he may simply
disable it.

I know this means a lot of work as the UI also need to be modified,
but the feature would surely greatly improve user experience for
Asian(especially CJK) users. If anybody will take some time on
implementing it, we will be very grateful~~
