Sí, estamos planeando revisar todas las cadenas, pero comenzaremos esto un poco más adelante, porque aún tenemos que determinar el procedimiento exacto.
Es posible que hayas visto la columna para conocer el estado de la revisión. Por el momento, todo esto es 0%, pero por el momento eso no impide que las traducciones ingresen a nuestro software. Esto puede cambiar más adelante, pero sólo cuando tengamos todo configurado de manera que las revisiones se realicen de manera oportuna.

 

Está roto en este momento, por eso no está habilitado. Veremos qué podemos hacer.

Ok, thanks for the clarification. I'll just translate and won't review for now.

Esto se debe a la maldita luz de fondo LED de las pantallas "modernas", que no pueden producir una mezcla blanca adecuada y son pulsadas.

Las pantallas LCD más antiguas estaban retroiluminadas con tubos de rayos de cátodo frío que producen una luz blanca mucho mejor.

Entonces, no es porque seas mayor. Piense en cuánto tiempo existen las pantallas LCD y desde cuándo el "modo oscuro" se hizo popular en todas partes; este último coincide aproximadamente con los cambios de retroiluminación de las pantallas...

Thanks for the explanation. Even so, when you spend a lot of time in front of a computer or TV, you'll notice eye strain.

Hi, please show the complete screenshot. Thanks.

[MediaEmby1968 47]

La imagen la recorte porque lo que comento es el texto y no el error que ya se a que se debe..

El texto continua en una ruta de archivo..

Pero aqui tienes Luke de todas formas.

I cropped the image because what I'm commenting on is the text and not the error, which I already know what it's due to.

The text continues in a file path.

But here you have Luke anyway.

 

 

 

Hi there, please attach the Emby server log from when the problem occurred:

How to Report a Problem

Thanks!

 

[MediaEmby1968 47]

Luke, I think you're misunderstanding me. I'm not asking about the error, but about the text "Could not find a part of the path," which doesn't appear in the translation strings. I'm telling you this so you can check it, and if it's not in the translation lines, so you can add it.

I'm highlighting the text I'm referring to in the photo.

Hi.  Pretty sure that text is coming from the file system, not us.

[MediaEmby1968 47]

Hi Ebr, I don't know if it's the file system. This screenshot is from the Emby server, but the same error also occurs on the Samsung TV. I could understand it on the TV, but on the server... why? I'm asking because the server is in Spanish. That's why I asked.

But that's all it is. If it has nothing to do with the server...

Well, nothing, it'll stay that way.

I understand but the log will help tell me what’s throwing the error and where the text is coming from.

[MediaEmby1968 47]

Okay, OK. Here's the file. I'll tell you what the error is. I've had my movies saved in folders for a long time. In that folder, I put the video, the subtitle, and an image called backdrop.jpg that I created so that the background of the movie listing looks correct. I updated to version 2.1.9 from version 1.9.2 that I was using (if you don't ask me how, but I've been using that version since it came out; I installed it via USB). The thing is, I saw that you changed things in the interface in 2.1.9 and I updated, and now the backgrounds look correct without having to use that backdrop.jpg image. When I select another image because it's now very dark and change the order so that the first one is visible... it gives that error (but only because I have the movies on an external hard drive, which wasn't connected at the time). When I connect it, it doesn't give that error logically because it finds the image.

Regards

Very close..  

It actually comes from the .NET runtime. We do not use localized .net runtimes, because this would affect all .net error messages and make it incredibly difficult to identify any errors.

We also cannot just replace it with a single message of our own, because there are many differen't possible messages in the context of that dialog (e.g. permission denied, timeout, network error, file locked, etc.) and it's better for troubleshooting when the actual message is shown than just a generic replacement by us.

I think the best we can do in this case is add a generic messsage by us - like "Error accessing the file of folder" - which can be localized and is shown on top of the actual .net error message.

Hi, anyone knows what is the status of the emby alexa integration in Spanish? I can help with the translation if needed. Thanks in advance.

What is the new app TestTemp under EmbyApps? Not sure that I need to translate it.

hi, it's just for testing the translation platform. You don't need to translate it.

[MediaEmby1968 47]

For future situations like this, it would be nice if you posted something that's just for testing and doesn't need to be translated. Post it here first so I know. I've only translated a few, but if I hadn't seen this message, I would have been wasting my time translating.

I'm sorry about the confusion. It was meant to be there just for an hour or two, being subject to an internal discussion, but it took a little longer.

Besides that, I would have thought that the name speaks for itself - I mean "TestTemp" = temporary test - not sure how this could be unclear  

But anyway - it's deleted now. Next time we'll try to make it non-public. Sorry again for the inconvenience and thanks for being part of the Emby Translation Team!

[MediaEmby1968 47]

Don't worry, nothing's wrong. I was just saying it because we translators dedicate time to translating all the Emby applications, and we dedicate time to translations, and we do it altruistically.

At least we shouldn't waste time doing things that aren't necessary.

As for whether it says test-temp, if I see it there, on a page of text files to be translated... well, the normal thing to think is that it needs to be translated. I don't know what applications you have, or how that application might be used in EMBY.

Well, without further ado, nothing's wrong... let's continue here and enjoy Emby.

Best regards

I would be happy to help you with the translations to Swedish.

I have previous experience since I have been working in the IT business for almost 40 years. Now I'm retired and have time for helping with things like translations.

I'm currently helping with translations to Swedish for applications like AudiobookShelf and Homarr. I'm also helping the french company R_volution with translations of their application R_video. I was previously helping the french company Zappiti before they closed down and converted to R_volution.

I keep Swedish up to date within hours. 

If you feel the need to change something bigger please talk to me first. I've been translating Emby for years. Running beta all the time to keep up (and to be consistent) and know where and how the strings are used. You'll almost need to be on beta to keep up. Thanks!

Thanks for answering. (Shall I write in English or is it ok to write in Swedish?)

I don't have any major areas that I feel has to be changed. It's just that I've seen some english in the app, but I guess that's because it's not possible to translate it. I've seen this happen in other applications I've been working with.

In general I'm really impressed by the quality of the translations to Swedish. Much better than most other apps I've been working with.

I'll be happy to let you know the thing I feel need to be changed or clarified.

English works. Swedish in pm. 

 

Yes. Not all strings has corresponding strings in Weblate yet. Some like hard coded. The Ruku-part is almost not translated at all. I haven't made the effort yet because Ruku's isn't that popular here. 

After the switch from OneSky to Weblate, some discussions about wording and strings got lost. So, please shoot me an pm if you would like to work on different parts. We also have terminology and glossary not translated yet. We didn't have them in OneSky so they are new to me too. Learning. 

 

I have read every singel string several times from the beginning to the end. Doing some tweaks here and there but I should have some good understanding of Terminology to be used to get in constant. Just need to translate the glossary and terminology bits to have it there too.

Some strings is translated "best effort" with the info we had at the time at translating or how you could guess where and how the strings where going to be used.

What I've noticed so far are words that I think are very hard to read and understand. Long words put together that I don't really think is Swedish. I'll give you some examples.

Ljudbakgrundsutseende - I don't understand what that is since the alternatives I can choose from are "Bakgrund" and "Huvudbild suddig"

Genrevisningsgräns - It took me some time to understand what it means. I think it would be easier to understand if the translation was "Gränsvärde för visning av genrer". There is space enough for displaying this text.

I have to say that I'm allergic to long "constructed" words put together that's hard to read and understand. I have seen 100's of them in the app.
