Starting to see movies with Chinese titles?

OP can change preferred language to English, refresh those movies and afterwards lock them, then revert to Danish. Repeat procedure upon every occurence until (and if) TMDB sorts it out, how knows if anyone opened ticket. 

Will wait to see what Luke says.  As I am not proficient in the fallback options as shown for images "include_image_language=da,null,en".  Don't know if that same can be done for language since technically there is no Danish translation so not sure how TMDB populates this.

I'd guess it's obvious how it populates: wrongly.

Interestingly it would appear it is suppose to fallback to English.

Consider implementing a fallback for Summary translations - Talk — The Movie Database (TMDB) (themoviedb.org)

But sum what related open ticket.

I just checked and when scrolling down sort by titles: This issue is not just a few movies as I thought LOL

So in order to fix this I need to manually find them and delete all the NFO files, and scan again (When it falls back to English?)

No. Just wait a bit for Dev's input, above scenario was already tested by @Happy2Play and yielded no results. As it seems that there is no fallback selection for language - or it ain't falling back to English, only images.

Sorry just noticed I posted there wrong api call for Danish, so this is actually a TMDB issue.  So I don't think there is anything @Lukecan do.

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/672322?api_key=f6bd687ffa63cd282b6ff2c6877f2669&append_to_response=casts,releases,images,keywords,trailers&language=da&include_image_language=da,null,en

"original_title": "るろうに剣心 最終章 The Beginning",

"title": "るろうに剣心 最終章 The Beginning",

If you change that language param to da,en, then it does actually change the data you get back, but it is undocumented, with nothing mentioned about it in their api docs, and not even a developer comment about it in the open topics about language fallbacks. And also if I try da,fr, then I don't get a fallback to French so this is not something we can try and use right now.

So right now I don't see anything that Emby Server can do differently here until they provide support for this. We can handle fallbacks on our side when data is empty, but in this case it's not coming back empty, so there's no way for us to know that we should replace it with data from another language.

still no way to prevent this?

getting the original title although there's a fallback english title.
I'm aware of the api issue from themoviedb, just hoped that meanwhile you figured out some workaround.

What exactly are you seeing, and where?
