Ben Z 86 Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 (edited) The sorting movies by original titles should really be implemented. I actually use English right now but my family keep telling me to change the overviews in french, which is possible only individually. Not convenient on large librairies. It would be so much easier to use all my configuration in french and sorting the movies with original titles. I really hope more people need this feature. English titles is a must, I don't like foreign ones. Edited October 23, 2016 by Ben Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

English titles is a must, I don't like foreign ones. I also want this function. I need swedish overview for all my movies but the titles should be the original title. The poster also need to match the original title. For example, you can do this with Kodi's scraper: Edited February 12, 2017 by chilledhobbit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you had a chance to look into adding a "Keep original title" or "Only display English title" feature? I think it would be appreciated. There are so many strange title translations in Europe Movies are given titles that have nothing to do with the English titles, which makes them hard to find if you're running Emby set to a non English language. Also confusing when browsing at times. Example: English Title: "Jason and the Argonauts" Swedish title (translated back to English): "The Golden Skin" Since the original title is kept in the NFO I'm hoping that it's not super complicated to add.

paulsalter 84 Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Sorry if this sounds picky, but if such an option is added It needs to be something like 'Original Title' or 'Local Title' I am in the UK and we have different titles to some films compared to the original releases (both English), so an option for English title only would be meaningless 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, "original title" would of course be optimal, and I think that the original title is what's saved in the NFO file also.

Kocane 5 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Is this functionality any closer? I mean no disrespect but isn't it really just a matter of making a checkbox that utilizes the existing "original title" field in the metadata? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlnqt 1 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 This is an option that I would like to see as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) I sometimes have to search for my foreign movies by original title, in original text/cuneiform.. I found it to help to have a catalog ID, IMDB number, and original language title embedded into those files.. I keep both names in the filename however.. Embedding this info into the files with covers is a good/best option ...and you can still have metadata downloaded in your original language.

lpinotti 0 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 I have a similar problem, but the other way around. My DB is in English and all filenames on my NAS are the original movie titles. Unfortunately Emby uses the IMDB English AKAs for Italian, French, Spanish or German movies. I would like to keep original titles, covers and graphics regardles the Emby language/location.

Hi, Emby doesn’t get titles from IMDb but instead from your highest priority metadata fetcher in your library settings. Which one is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lpinotti 0 Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Every parameters is set to "English". Even the browser is in and set to English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
