The Arabic text rendering in song name appears with letters not connected, screenshot attached, the web interface for google music doesn't have this problem. ps: you can see the correct render in the title bar.
OS : Ubuntu 11.10 32bit
version: Google Music Frame 0.3

Please could you load the same album in the Midori web browser (package midori) and any another web browser and post screenshots?

[Badry Darkoush (free-programmer4linux)]

The first one is midori browser , the second one is firefox on the same system and the same album.

Midori seems to have same problem with rendering of Arabic text. Because both Midori and GMF uses WebkitGTK for web page rendering, I think it's Webkit's bug.

but while browsing any arabic website in midori , the arabic text is rendered correctly.

This is font problem on with gtkwebkit rendering engine. You can confirm this with Chrome where Skia is used and fonts are displayed correctly.

Because this is a bug in WebkitGtk, not in Nuvola Player. This bug has to be reported to https://bugs.webkit.org/

[Badry Darkoush (free-programmer4linux)]

OK, thank you very much.

Marking as invalid for Midori since this is a webkit bug.
