| | Posted: | | | | Since the program cannot handle Unicode (yet...), how should we handle contributing titles in non-Roman alphabets? I am buying the Blu-ray set of 별에서 온 그대 (Byeol-eseo on geudae = You Come From the Stars, commonly known in English as My Love From Another Star)... which should be used for the title? |

| | Posted: | | | | What you enter depends on the locality in which your purchase was released.
If it's a US release, enter the title in Roman alphabet from the front cover in the Title field and use the Original Title field to enter a transcription of the oriental-language title.
If it's an oriental release, enter a transcription of the oriental title in the Title field.
I'm aware that there may be different transcriptions of titles in non-Roman alphabets. There aren't any fixed rules on which to use. I'd suggest using the most popular transcription method, if there is one. |

| | Posted: | | | | I had planned to use Byeol-eseo on geudae as the title since it is a Korean-locality release. (That is the official Revised Romanization of 별에서 온 그대.) |

| | Posted: | | | | Yes, then that's what I would enter in the Title field. |
