RusXMMS2 package contains patches for XMMS to achieve on the fly recoding functions.
Originally, the project was aimed to provide means to work with multiple encodings of the same language through adapting encoding of ID3 tags, M3U and PLS playlists (including file names) to local settings on-the-fly. Both the tag reading and writing back using any selected encoding was supported.
Nowadays there are library available providing the same functionality for almost any program with just a few lines of code. The library is not limited to ID3 tags, it can be useful for any program working with small titles or file names in different languages and encodings. The patches for several music players, ID3 tag libraries and some other programs are available on the project page.
