Duplicate Use Original titles option

[brothom 177]

I couldn't find a feature request for this, so here goes.

It's great that we can pick the desired meta data language in Emby but one thing always triggers me personally; changing the metadata language also (always) translates the title.

I really like that the synopsis is in my native tongue but these titles are just generally awful.
From memory I believe that Plex offers this function and it's great; everybody uses the same titles they're used to and can also find their movies.

I'm not going to search for "Nicht noch ein Teenie-Film", I'm doing to search for "Not Another Teen Movie", or "Very Bad Trip" which is apparently a translation for "The Hangover". These are just examples of course.

This topic was (from what I can tell) last discussed here but reached a dead-end. Hoping to revive this as a feature.

There's already an open request for this or something functionally equivalent. Please join in and contribute to the existing discussion(s).
