I have issues with Emby, but I need alternative suggestions

I have an issue with Content mixed and I have an issue with TV Shows.

The first is with Content Mixed when I put a folder or a video or whatever, but when the metadata doesn't appear and I can't choose a language other than English and can't even change the video to those original episodes with the metadata.

The second is the same system as the first but slightly different

When entering the metadata, it is not possible to change what you choose except for TV shows or videos, I hope there is a solution for it because some sites cannot get the metadata except in a foreign language or other languages.

I tried with a video that does not show the metadata with TV shows, I do not find a solution to these issues and terrible differences

  Although the video metadata appears original when I do it manually and it's very tiring, it should be the same with TV shows.

In case you don't understand what I mean, I will send a full video of this issue.

Need specific examples but Mixed Content will still require organization per their content type.  You cannot just dump a bunch of episodes and movies in a folder.

that true but

Why videos are not similar to TV shows The metadata is supposed to be accurate but I don't have to put each video description data because it is tiring and the folder and video are similar to TV shows so that you do not need to change the metadata will remain either video or TV shows you have freedom and also change the data description language all this is supposed to be similar to TV shows but there is no such feature so that I can change anything freely without restriction because there are some films that have episodes and some films have only one episode It's supposed to be mixed content.

They are supposed to be called films

Home videos & photos is dedicated to home videos and you don't need metadata.

Right even in mixed content you still have to follow naming and organization guidelines:

Movie Naming

TV Naming

It doesn't mean that you can just do a free-for-all and still have everything detected correctly. An example usage of a mixed content library would be having two subfolders where one is movies and the other is TV.

Yes, I'm with you, but metadata you don't have the freedom to change the language of the country at all, and you don't even have the freedom to choose films or TV programmes when it comes to metadata

Sorry but yes you do and requires specific organization.  Need a real example of the issue as TV or Movie can be set to any language a metadata provider has.

Also, regarding the metadata for each country, it is supposed to add a link for each country regarding the metadata without having to choose what is available so that he can choose the metadata according to his country and the site link for that metadata with its own episodes, image, etc. similar to TV shows

[Happy2Play 9781]

No Emby only support metadata in one language it will not download every language possible.

Here's the issue, why not put a link to metadata by country or customised code number?

 

For example, I'll give you a code from

MovieDb Id:

48624

and this link

https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/48624

Official English language

But if you put in another language that has an accurate description in Japanese

The code will not change, the same code will remain in the same official English language.

It has three episodes that are supposed to be on TV.

Here's the link

https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/48624?language=ja-JP

in Japanese with the same exact metadata

Of course, this is for films, but I have to put each video with the same code, it's supposed to be on TV shows.

And the same with TV shows.

https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/87056-urotsukidoji-iii-return-of-the-overfiend?language=ja-JP

But the code is different 87056

There is no description except (English) metadata that is not even accurate between the two and a Japanese link, so what's the point if I can't find a solution?

There has to be a solution

I'm sure it's not just the film, there are probably thousands of them.

There should be freedom of choice

Then you would have to cache the entire TMDB database of metadata on your server.  Personally I cannot see doing that on anyone's personal media server.  A business maybe.

But currently this is not an option per that existing feature request.

It's okay I'll use it for personal use on my own server as a personal, not a business, it doesn't matter, I'll pay if it's in that feature

Is there a radical solution

Don't believe there is in Emby or any of the competing products as all are limited to one language that I know of.

Unfortunately, there should be a variety of languages, I know that the programme is in English, but there should be metadata here through the link so that it is easy for everyone to choose what he wants from his language because when I choose the language and then the country will not help because the language of the official website becomes an official language, there must be a sub-language that puts a link to the original site and saves it automatically even if it is deleted from that site or changed.

[Happy2Play 9781]

Metadata and Site are two different things things as the UI has its own language.  Metadata is not that lucky and not saved in every written language and limited one language currently.  No media managers currently does multiple language metadata that I know of.

No as that is not how Emby works to get Feature Requests implemented as there would have to be server core changes.  And probably changes in every client.

If you pay someone enough to write a replacement for Emby or Plex to your specification.  Or seeing as Jellyfin is open source; pay someone to fork it and write the major changes required to make it possible.  In either case, wait a long time...
