Ninko 64 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Hi, When retrieving data from the movie database, why does Emby not retrieve the correct alternative title for your region? An example, the movie "The Rundown (2003)" in the UK is called "Welcome to the Jungle", but Emby retrieves "The Rundown". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37176 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Hi, what metadata fetchers are enabled on the library and in what order? Did you check to see what data your highest priority provider has? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no UK translation for this movie. @Ninko What are your exact library language settings? If not set per library check Settings-Library, Advanced tab.

Ninko 64 Posted June 28, 2022 Author Share Posted June 28, 2022 Here are my library settings. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8329 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 (edited) In my test the api does not return Alternate Names only titles provided via Translations. But it does honor the filename lookup so Welcome to the Jungle (2003) = The Rundown (2003) as this is the Title Now searching with a language that does have this translation will return that title. "title": "Welcome to the Jungle", Edited June 28, 2022 by Happy2Play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Happy2Play 8329 Posted June 28, 2022 Solution Share Posted June 28, 2022 (edited) Hmm I had a issue of browser auto translating the page. Language linking is correct just no translation for UK. Edited June 28, 2022 by Happy2Play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninko 64 Posted June 28, 2022 Author Share Posted June 28, 2022 So is this a bug? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So someone is required to translate that Title to your language. But Dev would have to comment more as the API only allows you to search Alternate title not return one ie requiring Translations.

Happy2Play 8329 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 So my understanding is all of these alternate titles will return "The Rundown" unless you are querying a translated title. Example of German translated title. So a de-DE language query will retun this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37176 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 So in theory this can be supported via append_to_response=alternative_titles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what happens when there are multiple alternate titles as en-US provides? So how would alternate title overide title? append_to_response=alternative_titles,casts,releases,images,keywords,trailers&language=en-GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of them are working_title so we'd ignore those. In fact I think we'd ignore any that have a non-null type. It looks like no type = displayable title.

Ninko 64 Posted June 28, 2022 Author Share Posted June 28, 2022 As far as I can tell you can't add a en-UK translation because all English selections default to en-US, so from what your saying, Emby has no way of getting the correct title for my region?
