Hi,

For some reason, I cannot get metadata and the movie image in another language then English.
For exmample the movie 28 days later on themoviedb.org has a Ukrianian movie image and metadata:
https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/170-28-days-later?language=uk-UA

Yet, when i set Preferred metadata download language and Preferred image download language to Ukrainian and Country to Ukraine, I still get the movie image and metadata in English

HI, did you refresh the metadata on the movie after doing that?

Need to see the server log from when item was imported or Refreshed.

Attached my serverlog.
What I did is:

1) Restarted Emby
2) Went to 28 days later in the "Ukrianian library" (I have two libaries, one English and one Ukrianian, both read the same movies from the same location) 
3) Pressed refresh metadata for 28 days later
4) All data stayed in English

What was noticable, is that when I tried to refresh the whole library (Ukrianian one) , it also started a scan for my English library, not sure if that is related (note, this part is not in the log, I tried that before I restared Emby for a fresh log)

An update:

I deleted my English library, having only the Ukrianian left.
When I refreshed the metadata on that specific movie, it directly worked.

So it seems its a bug:  If you have two libraries with 2 different languages, the second library you added lastly, will not download the metadata in that language. It seems it uses the settings of the first library.

This is only if both libraries, read the same movie folder

Having multiple libraries pointing to the same source is not supported (though it can - and does - work as long as one's particular about library type and settings) as one/same item cannot have two sets of metadata. 

As having multiple-language libraries for the same content is currently also not supported. 

I've just replied to another similar topic, you can check there for alternate solutions and/or lending your support.

It helps, I will vote on the feature as I think it's quite an important feature to have and in the meantime try out the strm files method

I use now symlinks, not strm to overcome the problem
