@softworkz@LukeCan you tell me why those strings are not translated, neither in version 4.9.1.90 nor in 4.9.3.0?

Hi, we are looking into it. Thanks.

@softworkz@Luke 

On December 9, 2025, I posted some screenshots of the server configuration. These screenshots showed text or sections of the configuration that, despite being translated, were not appearing in the correct translation. This occurred in version 4.9.1.90, and the issue persisted in the subsequent version, 4.9.3.0. Yesterday, it was updated to version 4.9.5.0, and the problem remains unresolved.

Could you please tell me what is happening? It has been six months, and the problem persists.

Hi. Cinema intros, open subtitles and backup all got updates to resolve that, right?

Hi @LukeI don't know if it received an update, but if it did, it was a while ago; at least the information in the Open Subtitles string shows the last update was 10 months ago.

That was the last time we changed the strings on the translation site. I published an update to opensubtitles a month or so ago using all of the latest strings at the time.

@Luke Even though it's been a month, it's still the same... because it's not just the open subtitles section... the others are still the same.

Hi, what exactly is the same? What others?

I've noticed lately that the translation page is taking a long time to load.

You mentioned OpenSubtitles, and it's not just that section; the other five I listed are also untranslated, even though the translations are complete.

Tested setting language to spanish (mexico), and they are all translated for me.

That's right, it will work correctly in Mexican Spanish, but I translate it into Spanish from Spain, or European Spanish as some people outside of Europe call it. And it doesn't translate it into Spanish from Spain, or what you categorize simply as Spanish.

If the solution is that I have to put it in Mexican Spanish...

Why bother translating it into Spanish from Spain, or Argentina, or even the United States... if it already works with Mexican Spanish?

OK so when you select plain Spanish it's using es-ar in some cases. This will be resolved for the next release. Thanks.

Well, we'll wait for the next version.

Spelling mistakes in the English source text:
 
DetectCombinedSeasonEpisodeNumbersHelp:

Not recommend. This will attempt to detect an episode number with 408 in the filename to be season 4, episode 8, but this can also cause incorrect detections. Use with caution.
 
SeriesDisplayOrderHelp:

Specify how your episode files are named and orgnaized.

Hi,

I’d like to help improve the Japanese translation for Emby.

I audited the Japanese localization files included with Emby Server 4.11.0.5 Beta and tested the updated strings on a running server.

The audit covers the server/web UI localization files and includes fixes for untranslated strings, mistranslations, inconsistent terminology, and some invisible formatting characters.

I also verified several changes directly in the Web UI, for example:

  • Home Screen → ホーム画面
  • Identify → 作品を識別
  • Stats for Nerds → 再生の詳細情報
  • Exit menu → 終了メニュー
  • Side navigation menu → サイドメニュー
  • Conversions → 変換
  • “Last ran {0}, taking {1}.” → 最終実行: {0}(所要時間: {1})

I have attached an audit package containing the updated Japanese JSON files and verification data.

The package is intended as review/reference material rather than a request to bypass the official translation workflow.

I understand that the official contribution path is translate.emby.media. Could you let me know the best way to submit these Japanese corrections there, or whether translator access needs to be granted first?

One additional finding: some strings in the iOS app appear to use a separate localization resource from the server/web client. For example, after changing StatsForNerds on the server, the Web UI correctly shows 「再生の詳細情報」, while the iOS app still shows the older translation 「専門家のための統計情報」.

Thanks!

Hi, the best thing to do is request access on the translation website. Thanks !
