Hebrew supported LCD - HD44780

Post by RazorJunior »

Hey,
I bought a hebrew supported LCD with a controller of HD44780.
I wired and connected it, and it works excellent for english.
The winamp and MBM plugins works perfectly.
When it comes to hebrew - there's a problem:
I see hebrew on the virtual display on my screen, but the LCD(4x20) displays arabic letters.
i checked manually(using the $Chr(20) command) and understood that the program sends the hebrew letters to ASCII 224-250 instead of sending them into ASCII60-186.
I mean that when i type $Chr(160) I see the first hebrew letter on the LCD, and when I type $Chr(186) I see the last hebrew letter on the LCD.
But when I type the first hebrew letter, i see the same letter as Chr(224).
How can i fix this problem?
Thanks,
RazorJunior :D

I think that the character mapping of lcd is different of LCD Smartie :smt103
I don't think that is any possible way to change the ascii addressing :cry:
try to post a bug report here:
