korzadze 0 Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago Hello. I'm setting up a home media library for myself and my family. I've run into a couple of issues: => 1. Maybe it would make sense to add a language attribute to the “Title,” “Original Title,” and “Description” fields. Something like <title lang="en">Babylon-5. The Gathering</title> <title lang="ru">Вавилон-5: Сбор</title> <title lang="fr">Babylon 5. Le Rassemblement</title> <originaltitle lang="en">Babylon-5. The Gathering</originaltitle> I think this will make life a lot easier. If it’s easier for me to read a list of movies in Arabic or German, I can specify my preferred display languages in the user settings, and only display what’s available if the titles/descriptions aren’t available in those languages. => 2. Есть ли возможность блокировать обновление полей DbId? => 3. When searching external databases (such as TheMovieDb or AniDb), use the title from the “title” field, not “originaltitle.” 2026-06-17 02:00:43.790 Info HttpClient: GET https://private.omdbapi.com?apikey=fe53f97e&plot=full&r=json&y=2023&t=Три очарования&type=series If I add a movie or TV series that has no translations or has multiple translated titles, it’s quite difficult to find it in the databases. It turns out I have to leave the original title in the “Title” field. Then why is the “Original Title” field even necessary? And, after all, it’s pretty inconvenient to have a localized library full of English, Chinese, or Indian titles, especially when the viewer is an 8-year-old :))) Or should I add the movie, wait for all the metadata to update, and then localize it? What if it’s a TV series that’s still being filmed?
