Chinese Language Assistance - 岁月留声: 交响乐演唱会

Hi

I picked up this Video CD the other day and have done my best to contribute it to the database; can someone just look over it and make sure I’ve not made any typos etc.

I used Google Translate with my smartphone to capture the text.

I really appreciate you making the effort to submit Chinese-language releases to the database.

But, Google failed you! All of the track names have errors except 3, 4, and 8 on VCD 2. The tracks on the MB page use Simplified Chinese characters. The album’s tracklist is in Traditional Chinese.

Maybe someone who has a Chinese IME installed on their computer can fix it for you, but it would take me too long to do. You can get better OCR with another app, or maybe by telling Google Translate to use Traditional Chinese. It’s not a matter of just converting the tracklist to Traditional Chinese: The wrong characters were detected.

OK thanks, I will give it another go.

I have also found that a lot of these tracks appear on other releases, so I might be able to gleam the correct spelling that way.

I have fixed the tracklist with traditional Chinese.
