Can't read chinese/japanese character from tag

[Tanuki33]

when i try to read tag the japanese/chinese character become ??? (question mark)
i am use FMODGMS_Snd_Get_TagStringFromIndex

game maker use utf8 , i think the extension use utf16 right?

before if I was wrong please forgive me :D *and sorry bad english
I just used FMOD for about 1 week, this extension is very useful!

This is due to alimitation of GameMaker Studio's extension system, where returned strings must be of type char*, which are (at least in Windows) limited to 8 bits per character, which causes problems with ID3v2 tags that use UTF-8 or UTF-16 strings. I have been thinking of a workaround for this, so I hope I'll get this fixed soon.
